"Goblins eh? I guess we should check out this Rexor fellow," Lola whispered. "And let's have some drinks while we wait. You know, so we fit in."

She nodded and pulled out her coins as she sauntered over to the betting area. Without much ado she traded 20 coins on Rexor then found a good spot to watch the upcoming sport.

Queenie went and placed 20gp on the table and wrote an 'R' on the table with alcohol suds when a hawker taking bets came close. The man got the hint and took the gold, giving her a receipt with Rexor's name in exchange.
Quinn came back with a couple of handfuls of gold coins cradled in his arms, and purchased the services of a young-looking slave from the pimp he was talking to. She had been suffering the abusive taunts of several half-orc mercenaries, who looked at Quinn in anger as he led her away by her collar and chain. When she reached the party, however, it became obvious why Quinn put money down for her. She was the flower girl that had not been seen of late and that Edvan was enamored. When she saw Edvan she shook with anger, "Oh this wicked week becomes ever more so. The boy who used to come and try to charm me was actually a vagabond? Was it you and your obscene desires that caused me to be enslaved? Your nothing but a brigand! Charlatan! Thug!" She grabbed Edvan by both shoulders, but her attempted knee to his privates was stopped by a quick-thinking Quinn and a tug on her chain.
This exchange was missed by everyone else in the room, for Liar Mukang entered, his chair being carried by several servants while he himself was followed by a retinue of sycophants. Liar was rested in front of the lip of the arena pit as one of the portcullis entrances was raised and Rexor and two men entered the ring to cheers from the crowd and he was announced by the barker.

Holding the girl by the collor in what could very well look to be a gruff mannor, but was not to very so in reality, he whispers in his own voice, "relax moppit, we are here on a rescue mission, and we had no idea you were her. If you wiull aquese, you can be counted as collateral rescue. Hmm?" and with he gives here a slight eyebrow raise.
then to edvin he says quietly, "give me ten minutes and then see if we can get out nimble finger friend to assist in removeing the collor. we have on night."

When Quinn pulls the girl off him Edvan stumbles back in shock of seeing the object of his infatuation in this terrible place and horror that she could think that he was the cause of it. He continues to gape as Quinn drags her away and it seems likely that he barely comprehended the man's words.

OOC: lol, you said Queenie
Lola found a spot up front and sat quietly with Rovan sitting directly behind her. She kept her eyes peeled for any girls who seemed to be the age they were looking for, but not knowing the girls appearance made it difficult to narrow them down. Hopefully one of the other men was getting the information they needed; it bothered her to be here in the Pleasure Dome. Even having been in the profession, at least it was her choice to do it.

Liar Mukang winked at Lola (OOC: Got the name right this time!) and asked, "Madam Lanolan! Why don't you come here for the show my dear?" Lola nodded and the Wilders and their new slave stood near Liar.
As they got into position the announcer shouted about the contest beginning, and ten screaming goblins with crude shivs made of bone, loin cloths, and face paint poured out of the arena's eastern gateway.

Goblins typically are less civilized, but from what you've heard from other soldiers, plus the limited reading you have been picking up, they have their own primitive civilization and are not so suicidal to engage in a direct charge. The paint, weapons, and clothing was likely given to them to put on a better show. Also, you notice several short, dog-faced creatures with spears had 'motivated' the goblins into their charge before retreating back into the eastern tunnel.

The goblins crashed into the shields of Rexor and his two men, desperately trying to find a gap in their armor. The first three goblins went down easily, Rexor's blade feinting towards one of the lead goblins' faces before making a quick half-circle back and slicing its throat. Liar whispered to the group as the battle continued, "You may or may not know that there are certain weapon experts that can teach one how to use their weapons more proficiently. Rexor learned from someone, though who I know not. It makes a decent show, though the outcome is always boringly inevitable." Rexor disarmed his next attacker and ran him through, followed by stunning the next goblin with a shield slam.
The battle was over soon after, with the goblins slain and Rexor's two companions badly huffing and bleeding in several places. Rexor suffered a cut to his side, but it was not deep and he proudly raised his blade over his head. Liar clapped and yelled down, Bravo, Rexor! Bravo for yet another great victory! What an amazingly foreseen victory." The last was uttered sarcastically to the Wilders, before his servants carried him away to his audience hall.
Lola earned back her 20gp plus 2gp more.
The flower girl asked the group, "So what now, 'masters'. Shall we converse in your chambers so I may serve you." By her tone, she was obviously going to continue to be distrustful and difficult.

The Wilders headed back downstairs and to their chambers, with the flower girl in tow. Once they reached the privacy of their room, Lola took out a couple of lockpicks that held up her hair and worked on the girls collar. With a clatter the halves of the collar had hit the floor and the girl massaged her neck and sighed. "Oh, that's so much better. All right you pack of rogues, what kind I do for you? And if it involves wandering hands or eyes, I swear you'll take a few bruises so let's keep it professional, hmmm?"
