You get this pelt from killing a “Curious Jackal” who is an Ashira Shapeshifter.
Take this pelt to the tannery. Just downstairs from old Rankle. Ask him if he knows about pelts and then hand him the pelt after he responds.
He will hand back an “Ashira Pelt”
You will get more story about this pelt and will tell you to go ask a seasoned bard about it.
Go find Jalwa Noor behind the stage in the market and ask about ashira shapeshifters.
You will be asked to go find her beloved’s Alisar’s belongings from Wyrmsbane. She alludes to the be piano that you can find if you go to the left room, and take the secret passage to the rooms below.
Standing in front of the organ, look / inspect
“to the right of the organ in the corner is a cobweb, standing there and doing /take lute” is what worked.” (Thanks Jug!)
Turn in lute to Jalwa, who will teach you the chant.
Now, go and find the shapeshifter who is in the park.
The Ashira Shapeshifter is Mayana – Target her and start the chant by putting in a top slot and right clicking. You can use it from hotkey.
After you turn her, she will ask if you are friend or foe. Foe will agro her. Unnatural might be a trigger as well.

– The city is not as it seems. There are unnatural forces at work here.
