The short version

Trail of Butterfly Shadows is the opening chapter of the Legendary Journey, from 16 to 25 September. You collect Irisalis Petals by exploring Breezy Plains and playing the story. Petals pay out milestone rewards and go toward crafting the Legendary Aniipod that opens the encounter with Irisalis, the season's Legendary.

The developers explained the flow in their pre-launch letter: gather Legendary tokens through exploration and story, craft your own Legendary Aniipod, and the encounter then appears on the map. It happens only once, so be ready before you use the pod.
