Nathan, you suddenly recall that some magic items need to bond with the wielder before they reveal their secrets; you think that might be the case here. The bonding has something to do with spending time with each other, but you can't recall the specifics beyond that.
Shalech, the chair moves a bit as you push it, it felt soft and cushy against your foot. Its legs make a scrapping noise as it moves across the floor.
Sathalvir, you enjoy watching the last rays of light fade below the horizon, night is upon us. Realizing that the people infront of you appear occupied, you decide to move on to the local tavern; seen in the distance.
Suddenly a woman is standing in the room, glowing with light. She is incredibly beautiful and dressed very seductively, in a multi layered cloth outfit. She begins to dance and move around the table, but her eyes are fixed on Shalech and Urselles.
She moves in complete silence, until Croak takes another step; and the building fills up with another long loud creak. As Croak begins moving his weight onto the step, a low mournful howl comes from the room to the left at the top of the stairs.
(Perception checks everyone, including Sathalvir if you are still here.)
Purely in shock of what has just occurred, Shalech pauses to think, trying to put it all together as to why the obvious illusion activated, why a moaning noise is coming from upstairs, why the dancer appears to be staring into his eyes, and most importantly of all; why is she pulling off a piece of her clothes?
Urselles may not have realized that the girl is an illusion yet, since she is looking at her and trying to speak to her. She definitely hasn't noticed that the illusion has slowly started undressing.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
A female illusion undressing is a good way to get a male to stop paying attention to anything else. Rolling intelligence to see if Shalech has the presence of mind to realize this and avoid looking at the illusion.
Nathan is puts the artifact away, hoping to be able to as advice from Dar about how to get attuned to it later. When he sees the illusion, he knows that it is not real, but he still can't look away. He is at that age when young men are especially interested in beautiful women, especially as he comes from a small town, where there were relatively few girls, and the ones that were around were not really interested in the dorky wizard's apprentice... Still, he tries breaking the illusion.

Shalech, surprised to be so close to an illusion and not notice, tries to push the chair away from the table with his foot.

Shalech stands confused, "This is just a chair..."

She doesn't answer, nor make a sound, continuing to dance around the room. She begins to untuck part of one of the cloths.

Shalech is not one of the most sturdy individuals and knows it He will back away to put some distance between him and the apparition.

As you move back behind the chair, her eyes shift from you to Urselles.
Urselles may not have realized that the girl is an illusion yet, since she is looking at her and trying to speak to her. She definitely hasn't noticed that the illusion has slowly started undressing.

As soon as the illusion breaks eye contact with Shalech he turns away, avoiding looking in her direction.
Having broken the temptation to look at the illusion, Shalech looks around for a reason for such a distraction.

Croak perception: 6
Croak isn't intimidated by neither the noise nor the woman. "Who is this woman? You lot alright down there?"
Croak moves a little more quickly to the room on top of the stairs, where he thinks the moan came from and throws open the door.
