What The Gods Allow

Medusa, the Gorgon, is freetemporarily. Penned up in Tartarus, the godsZeus and Herashow her mercy. Medusa is given two weeks in which to track down their wayward daughter, Eris. Transformed into a beautiful young woman, Medusa is given only one warning: not to use her powers of transforming those to stone.

She agrees and adopts the name Meddy Gorgonne. In a stroke of chance, she finds lodgings with the Goldstein's, Sam and Trudy, and tries to figure out how modern Portland works. Cars, showers, televisionall are mysteries to her at first, although she adapts.

Meddy is somewhat naive about life and especially about love, as she slowly falls for Sam, a teen who is suffering from Usher's Syndrome, a disease that will blind and deafen him in time. What is more troubling to Meddy is that her powers of turning people to stone have returned, and she is at a loss as to why.

With the police slowly closing in and time running out on how to get Eris to return to Olympus, Meddy discovers that sometimes old is new, and that time-worn traditions can surmount modernity.

But will they be enough for her to stay with Sam, or will she be forced to return to Tartarus for eternity?
