It was a very rock relationship. Guinevere loved Sir Lancelot (Arthur's best knight and closest friend) and Sir Lancelot loved Guinevere back. In some versions, Lady Guinevere even runs off with Sir Lancelot and has children with him! However, in most versions, Guinevere and Sir Lancelot just love each other and have a full-blown affair. In another version, King Arthur got over their relationship and married a woman named Iblis. King Arthur also allowed Guinevere and Lancelot to start a relationship (because he couldn't really do anything about it....). However, he said he could not forgive them, ignoring that...Guinevere and Lancelot moved to Brittany (where Lancelot's father was staying). Hope that answered your question!

The act of whetting implies a readiness for confrontation, reflecting Gawain's internal struggle with honor and bravery. Thus, the grinding serves as a metaphor for the tension between his ideals and the harsh realities of knighthood.
