In the present case, Bardelys may be amazing in her ability to flirt, manipulate men, pursue romance. brave, etc. but he is left out in the realm of common sense, and therefore (but to the moderate hand of fate) he constantly makes mistakes that will turn out to be ordinary Men who value truth and honor. So while the lesser men, who were perhaps quite a bit more 'gallant' in this regard, would have acted more carefully, Bardelys survived by chance and with the privilege of the nobility.
