When you first talk to Thalyssa, do not go afk, you need to click on echos as they spawn. If you miss it drop quest and start again.

At first I was unable to "Talk to Thalyssra" so I used the nearby Portal to Shal'Aran then portalled back and was able to continue the quest
If you don't have the option to Talk to Thalyssra, try abandon and pick it up again. She should then move and start her roleplay.

What to do
Description
Now that I have identified Vanthir's essence from the multitude of Suramar's citizens, it may be that I can find his exact location. I believe you'll recall a similar ritual with our friend Theryn. Do not worry- there will be less screaming this time. Hopefully. Come. Let us find our missing tavernkeeper.
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
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Essence Triangulation
Vanthir... an example! That certainly explains why Elisande chose to hold him this long. We need to move quickly. I can track him, but I will need to find places where his Arcane Essence is strongest.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Waxing Crescent
His captor is familiar to me. He is one of Aluriel's lieutenants and a skilled spell-fencer at that. You will need Silgryn's help to retrieve the key to Vanthir's prison. Our friend's life hangs in the balance.
