The duo will task you with hunting a monster. While you search for the monster, Daffodil will sing the following: "Oh Daffodil, oh Daffodil. He’s the best! Not like his partner, who only wants to rest!

"Leave it to Daffodil, the brilliant poet, not that big oaf, everyone knows it! Where is the beast? Where could it be? If you won’t help, then leave it to me! Have no fear, you crass buffoo – eh? I, uh … Gwynceirw? I think I found something!"

Then, once you've killed the monster for the Shadowlands Witcher Easter Egg, Daffodil will offer to sing you another song as a reward, aptly entitled "toss a seed to your hunter".
