As Exalted with the [faction=1015], I received the following dialog option upon accepting the quest:
(Quest) I have helped the Netherwing before. I can tell you about it."Clicking the above completes the quest criteria, and the following additional dialog appears:
<You tell Wrathion of how you worked with the Netherwing leader to infiltrate and ultimately free their flight from the Dragonmaw in Outland.>Thank you <name>, you are a font of knowledge! This is more than Sabellian was able to tell me.
Do we know what the precursor quest or rep level is for the chain yet, or is it just time gated?

I suspect Vyranoth might also be interested in recruiting new dragons to our cause... but she'll need a little convincing. I just so happen to be very good at convincing. I'll speak with Vyranoth, and we'll meet you in Valdrakken once she's decided to join us.
