First quest might only pop up after killing Argus once on that account. Relog should help, if it does not show up for you or close your client completely, if you have done step 9 and The Speaker's Call does not trigger (as described here).
You can switch the zone phasing at Zidormi, if you can't see your quest giver in Silithus.If you just want to empower your artifacts quickly, you can skip the optional quests.

Description
How did the silithid survive the blade of Sargeras?! I've never encountered a species that can adapt to changes in the environment as quickly as the silithid! There's gotta be a way to tame these suckers! Harness their evolutionary biology for our profit! We gotta start training 'em young! Forget about the old crusty adults, we need babies! Steal me as many of the silithid larvae as you can carry, and I'll find a way to train 'em!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Source of Power
The silithid are all riled up and stronger than ever! My guess is that they are feeding off of some kind of power beneath the ground. Probably near the blade of Sargeras! I've been ordered to study the effects that this mysterious power is having on the sillithid.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Twilight Survivor
Silithus used to be overrun with members of the Twilight's Hammer. The cult was presumed to be exterminated, but it has always survived in the shadows. Their numbers have dwindled, but the cult remains no less fanatical than at their peak.
