TheWoWDBThe titles of the missions that need to be completed for this quest are not always obvious, however, it seems that they have a yellow question mark on the left side of the missions that will count toward completion. You will see it when you go to your available missions, as if you are going to begin one. I just began one called "Janai's Famous Flaming Omelettes" and if my theory is correct, it will count toward the completion of this quest. Also, worth noting, when I used 3 of my followers alone, they were not good enough to complete Janai's Famous Flaming Omelettes. However, when I took one of my followers out and tossed in a Circle of the Earthcallers, my completion went up to 106%. I will report back in 11 hours when I know for sure if I get credit.
**Update: It did count toward credit.**

I've completed this quest (and the other 2 quests you get with it) but the ascendant of flames quest isn't popping for me.
No one is offering quests in the order hall and the quest log is empty. Any ideas?
After completing around 15 missions, I received this quest. However, it does not appear on my scouting map which is rather strange. Am I supposed to complete more secondary missions before getting Firelands missions, or is it a bug?

Description
The time has come to return to the Firelands. I need not tell you how dangerous this will be, Farseer. Ragnaros may be defeated, but the elementals of the Firelands destroy with reckless abandon. Our presence there will surely be seen as an act of aggression. I have prepared a scouting mission to the Firelands. We should send only our very best champions to make contact with the elements there. If the mission is successful, we may find the information we need to bring the Firelands into our fold.
