The Te'Ka quest bugged out on me and would not show me the quest. It's through the portal right next to him and kill 8 creatures on that balcony area.
I also ran into this bug (for me, Ba'ver assisted wouldn't resolve), and fixed it like so:
1. Abandon 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'
2. Re-accept 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'
3. Turn in 'Restoring Operational Efficiency'.That was all it took for me - hope it's that simple for anyone else running into this bug.

What to do
Description
Locus-Walker was brought into the Trust to handle such a violent crisis of the Void. He says you are some kind of hero or champion. Good. We are in need of such a thing. Tazavesh is under threat from the Void. The Shadowguard! They threaten the work of the Trust and my reputation as an administrator.
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.
- Return to the Veiled Market
I have been retained by the K'aresh Trust--a coalition of both broker and ethereal cartels who seek to reclaim K'aresh. The Trust is in desperate need of one of your skills, <name>. The Shadowguard assaults our city and threatens the work of the eco-dome project. Please accompany me.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Compromised Containment
Somehow, an artifact in the Menagerie has broken open, unleashing a swarm of furious arcane creatures. They're wreaking havoc, and havoc is bad for the project. I need someone capable of getting this situation under control with no questions asked.
