If you left before listening, just abandon the quest and pick it up again. It's on the Alliance ship in Boralis. Accepting it triggers the two NPCs to talk to each other, and you need to wait right there until they finish to turn it in.

I did this quest on my void elf, and Magister Umbric had the following dialog chain that I don't recall seeing on my human character:

How fare you, Magister Umbric?

I struggle to fetter the whispers, same as you. Thankfully, Alleria Windrunner continues to offer us her guidance.

Without her intervention... well, I fear we would have all been lost.

And though I was reluctant to treat with him at first, I have learned much from the Locus-Walker. Just bear in mind that anything he offers is bound to serve his own goals in some way.

Do you believe we have earned the trust of the Alliance?

So long as Silvermoon stands with the Horde, there will always be those who mistrust us.

But the Alliance is where our people belong. I am more certain of that now than ever before. Stay the course, <name>. Show our comrades in the Alliance that we fight for the same cause.

One day the Horde's grip on our land will be broken, and the children of Quel'Thalas will stand united once more.

I know it.

Description

Welcome back, {name}. We're ready to set sail on our next mission.... Now we just need to reach an agreement on where we're headed. General Feathermoon and I disagree on which Horde target we should prioritize next. But if you'll give me just a moment, I'm confident I can convince her the value of my strategy and we'll be swiftly on our way. I've considered every reasonable alternative. This is the best course of action.
