Narstin leaves his shield strapped to his back os he can hold the crystal to his eye with one hand while using the other to fight. To start, he tries a Sacred Flame on the medusa to see how it reacts.
Skameros will attempt to sneak over to like O6 or O7 if he can and keep hiding
[Stealth: 9]
There we go.....oh well
Skameros crouches low and carefully walks across the wide open cave, dimly lit by bioluminescent fungi whose lights are being refracted all over by the crystal clusters. He stands by the precipice, crouching, utterly confident he is invisible...

Sacred Flame requires you cast at something you can see. You clearly said you are not carrying your shield so you can hold your crystal to your eye. First thing that has to happen is to roll a DC 14 CON Saving Throw with advantage due to the crystal: 17
Then the Medusa makes it's DC 14 DEX Saving Throw: 21
Beegred @ 18 <<< CURRENT TURN IN ROUND 2: If you are looking at her, roll DC 14 CON Saving Throw. With advantage if using a crystal. Fail by 5 or more, you are instantly petrified. A fail by 4 or less you begin to petrify and are restrained.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Beegred focuses on the Medusa and pushes through a wave of malevolence originating from her to approach and attack. However, the Medusa dodges the attack, one snake head looking directly at Beegred and hissing. Beegred taunts the Medusa in common and the creature doesn't seem to react at all.
She speaks to Narstin in an archaic Elvish, which he understands, "Not even your holy fire or your faith will end my curse. Whatever god sent you to me erred, or threw your life away. If you will not fall to my curse and become a plaything for the dust, then I will strike you down myself. Maybe feasting on your holy flesh will end this fate of mine."

Wand attack: 13
With that missing he will run into the burrow the medusa came out of and take a quick look around, especially for something mirror-related. (He will use his bonus action to Dash as well due to Expeditious Retreat)
Rodolfo fires another charge from the wand, but the Medusa seems to be able to see all around her and deftly avoids the glob. Rodolfo then dashes into the Medusa's lair to look for anything that can help. (You can search on your next turn)

Seeing the Medusa's attention is elsewhere, Beegred lashes out with his weapon, a little bit too late to capitalize on the opportunity.
Skameros takes one last glimpse at the Medusa before closing his eyes and charging blindly, mighty axe held up high. He brings it down hard where he thinks the Medusa is standing, and violently slams the ground with it.
