Gwydion may have accidentally met Baba Yaga. If he looked behind the tapestry outside his bedroom, he finds himself transported into Baba Yaga's hut. She tells him he shouldn't be there, she cast a paralysis spell on him, and told that he shouldn't be snooping around. She then wondered if Manannan knew he was there. However she decided it didn't matter, and that she wanted Alexander for dinner, turning him into Goat Head Gumbo.
