They will guide you along the river where you may encounter monsters and other enemies. Use Disillusionment spell if you want to avoid confrontation and focus only on the side quest.
When you cross the bridge, the butterflies will fly back above the path. Walk past the signs and approach the trees. There will be a Collection Chest with a Bookstand in the grass.
Return to the quest giver and talk to her. You will receive a Conjuration Spellcraft.
After this quest, you'll unlock the activity to search for chests by following butterflies. Locations where butterflies will lead you to a hidden treasure will appear on the map.
