1) Gawain's speech is one of manhood. He tells Yvain that he must travel with the other Knights and continue on adventures with the round table. The problems for Yvain is that he has just married the woman of his dreams and he does not wish to leave her. Gawain says that Yvain can not be a man who is burdened by his wife. He therefore asks permission to leave and she gives him one years distance that he may venture out. This is extremely problematic as we find out because he does not return in the time allotted.
5) Lunnette's problem with the barons is one that we have seen multiple times in texts like this. She was wrongfully accused of lying to her lady with regards to a love making. They plan to stone her without a fair trial and she has no one on her side except Yvain who just barely makes it in time to rescue her. I believe that when she is on deaths bed praying for forgiveness that she was right, she had on her side a very noble Knight and she did indeed survive.
