It's whenever you kill your third Lord you get teleported to the Dancer, it happened to me after the Giant Lord I believe.
it's lazy design to make it abundantly clear to even the dumbest of player that this is where you proceed after the 3 lords of cinder. bad design, but you can homeward bone out so it's not the end of the world if you so choose to.

The fight only starts when you approach the ladder. You can just walk away :)

Oh ok..That was my mistake then..

The problem with Homeword bone to leave is if you get hit it cancels the action. If your going to do that it can be hard with an aggressive boss as you have to find a spot that gives you enough time to open you inventory, use the bone, and then take you wherever. I have got killed by a boss doing that before.

IIRC if you get teleported, then she is already dying.

You can still Homeward Bone out. Like, after she dies. Just don't walk up to where you put the Basin of Vows. That's all you have to do. Stay where you were and use Homeward Bone.

So he should just intuit that a boss will randomly show up after a big story moment that you're forced into? It isn't like he walked through a fog door.

The cutscene started automatically I did not do anything that I can remember. Adldrich fight ended . I got a cut scene ..and then another followed afterword with the women. I got the basin and went to the Dancer fight. I don't remember doing anything in between. Although its possible I took a few steps towards the women when she appeared. I cannot remember if it was a cutscene or just I appeared looking at her.

You have to do a few steps forwards to activate the bossfight, IIRC.

To be clear

You killed the boss.
Cutscene
LoadScreen
Cutscene
You are now given a new key item.
You have controll over your character.
You then walked forward to complete the objective the nice dying lady just told you to do.
Cutscene
Second Boss fights start.

No its a boss fight cutscene. Then all the sudden there is a women sitting there talking to you. Telling you to help somebody and its natural to walk towards her. and then boom another boss fight. There is not creepy music and big arena.
