s. When she demanded his apology, he refused. To punish him, she enchanted a gingerbread man. The uproar this caused made the baker's family lose their bakery.

Trivia

The Gingerbread Man is a classical fairy tale about a runaway cookie.[2] Ezmia's story connects her with several other fairy tales and items such as the Pied Piper, Beauty and the Beast and the golden harp.
