If you are doing Legion Remix and stuck on this quest because there is no quest giver, I figured out what I did. I do quests one at a time, so when Kalecgos gave me The Enemy of My Enemy... in Suramar I never completed More Than Just a Food Vendor. I had to go back to Felsoul Hold, summon Kalec with the stone in my inventory, accept and complete More Than Just A Food Vendor, and then after completing that quest Khadgar was in my Class Hall to give me A Small Favor.
I've been stuck for weeks and was scared Mage Class Hall was the only one I wasn't going to be able to finish.
Part of the [class=8] class order hall campaign. For details and the full quest line see the comments about [class=8].

Description
Meryl's illness is troubling. I have seen something similar before, but I cannot think of its name... Talk to my friend. I call her Ari. She has lived here in the Hall of the Guardian since it was last in use. If a tome on magical afflictions is to be found here, she would know where to look.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Proper Way of Things
Archmage Khadgar is my friend. That he trusts you means much. I know of the book in which you seek, but it does not want to be found. It is old and angry and thirsts for power. We will have to convince it to emerge from hiding in the proper way.
