strange that nowhere here does it give the info as to what this leads to

but it seems to be a longish questline to start the quests in Stormheim (Legion)
(which is weird as I got the quest to talk to Nathaniel whist I was already in Stormheim)

Where to go

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.
