If like me, you're trying to figure out why you are not able to get this quest from Advisor Sevel. Take the portal to Deepholm and talk to Ma'haat the Indomitable. He has a quest for you to turn in 3 Blood of Sargeras. After that you can continue with the Shaman campaign quests. Good luck!

Description
Elementalist Janai has been hard at work restoring the Maelstrom Pillar. As of late, she has been focusing her research on the element of earth. You should speak with her when you have a chance. I have heard that she is close to a breakthrough.
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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ma'haat the Indomitable
In order to imbue the Maelstrom Pillar with the essence of earth, we will need one of the rarest fossils found on Azeroth - an egg. The Egg of Gaiath is no ordinary egg; it contains the remnants of an unborn earthen primal, perfectly preserved in stone.
