Chicken Scratch is a quest for level 10-45. It is step 6 of 42 in the Legion Blacksmithing storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Dalaran at 41.1, 36.8. It rewards 775 experience.
I think I have just the thing to extract the information from this core for you.
<Timofey loads the core into the hopper of a clearly goblin-made machine, then covers his ears.>
You may wish to avert your eyes, blacksmith.

If you are confused about this quest, you are not alone. When you accept this quest, the [item=123978] you need is not given to you immediately. [npc=92194] will walk over to lever panel, fiddle with it a bit, then the item will be granted. You then take that item to [npc=92195] in the Inscription shop.
If you happen to leave the building before getting the [item=123978], there doesn't seem to be a way to go back and get it. Not to worry though - simply abandon the quest and re-accept it, and this time wait for him to do his thing!
Bring [item=123978] to the [npc=92195] inscription trainer. Exit the Magus Commerce Exchange from the south road and [npc=92195] is in the first door to the right.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to access any information within this core. But I know someone who does. Head over to "Like Clockwork", the engineering shop three doors down from here. Timofey Oshenko owes me a favor. He should be able to extract the memory out of the core.

I could spend hours poring over the details of this fascinating manuscript! ...is what I would say if this weren't the simplest of tasks for someone of my skill level. It's about something called "Leysmithing". Here.

As a note, when I received this quest, i didn't actually receive the item in my bags. When Timofey gives you the quest, he walks over to a machine and pulls some levers. After a moment he reads from a scroll and walks back to his original position. I then checked my map for the ? for where to go next.
