What ways might the lady be considered Gawain's foe?
The last is a temptress of sorts. She tempts Gawain into the kiss and convinces him to wear the "magic" girdle. Both these actions compromise the famous Arthurian code of Chivalry. In the end, Gawain passes his test. The Green Knight considers the girdle a minor transgression and Gawain is sent on his way.
