UPDATE: We didn't get any further report, so it seems like the issue is indeed totally fixed. Thanks all for your patience and understanding while we were working on it.
UPDATE 11/11/2014: This issue should be fixed by now. Please, if you are still experiencing this issue let us know so we can look into it. :)
At the moment there’s an issue with this quest. The item [item=46352] is not casting the appropriate spell. Due to this it’s not possible to fill the [object=195002] and complete the quest. Our development team is aware of the situation, so this should get fixed in the future. :)
If you cannot get a quest from these guys you probably have to go and kill furbolgs northwest of astranaar until you loot a "this item begins a quest" called troll charm. This will start a chain that eventually sends you to the elementals.

What to do
Description
<The massive earth elemental gazes down upon you.> The flow of the lava must be stopped if we are to prevail. I will grant to you a portion of my power. Use it to fill the lava fissures!
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.

Where this quest fits
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Put Out The Fire
Lord Magmathar's minions must first be dealt with if we're to retake this area and put a stop to the fiery destruction of the forest. The lava ragers on the flow to the north are strengthened by being on their own element. I fear that on your own, you won't have much chance against them.
The storyline at a glance
Ashenvale, Everyone has 2 steps, from Hot Lava to Put Out The Fire.
