Jamie learns of Medusa threat

The label 'Legends of Ancient Greece' serves as a contextual clue, reinforcing the mythological nature of the threat Jamie has just discovered. It looms nearby, visually linking the ticker-tape alert to the broader narrative framework of the Citadel—where stories and myths are weaponized. The label’s presence is subtle but critical, as it frames Medusa not as a random danger but as a deliberate, story-driven trap set by the Master. Jamie’s glance at the label deepens his understanding of the peril, tying the immediate threat to the larger, surreal logic of the Citadel.

Before: Fixed in place on the control room’s wall or surface, part of the Citadel’s labeling system that categorizes and contextualizes its narrative threats.
After: The label remains unchanged, its role fulfilled in providing the necessary context for Jamie to grasp the severity of the situation. It serves as a silent but persistent reminder of the Master’s control over the Citadel’s reality.
