This quest becomes available right as you enter Maraudon / Purple Crystals and in order to complete it you just have to click "Complete Quest" under the quest description in your quest log, after of course you've killed Lord Vyletongue.

Just thought I'd put a note here in case you entered Mauradon through the entrance at Desolace like I did. When you enter from the first glowing portal you come across in there, you may end up in the easy half of the dungeon. Here you are given no immediate quests, but once you take a step, the new "Mauradon Quest" interface will popup, and you can kill mobs and bosses at whim.

However, by the time you get to the east side of the the dungeon, and arrive at this other entrence, you'll get randomly given this quest to kill Lord Vyletongue. No doubt by this point, the guy is already dead, making this quest a bit "Johnny come lately."

Since you can slip by the guy without killing him, you might want to leave him alive til after you obtain this quest, rather than having to do the dungeon a second time like I have to.

Incidently, this quest wasn't given to me by any NPC - it just auto-appeared when I walked up the path to the entrance portal. You have no choice but to accept it either, as it goes into your log regardless.

Description

{name}, I require your assistance immediately! I am Zaetar, son of Cenarius, and I am trapped here after an unfortunate series of events! Before saving me is an option, you must help me clean out the corruption that runs so rampant through Maraudon. Lord Vyletongue is the satyr ruler of the purple crystal caverns. He is an insidious agent of the Burning Legion and his continued presence can only lead to chaos and death. He can live no longer!
