I asked around like crazy and no one told me (or knew) but this IS the starting Quest that unlocks the town Vol'Mar in Tanaan Jungle, just follow this quest chain and you'll be on your way.
Hadn't visited my garrison for years. No one associated with the questline would give me the next quest. Talked with garrison flightmaster and took free flight to Iron Docks. Sammy Fivefinger = no quests. Hearthed back to garrison; Vol'jin was next to the command table with this quest available.
