Looks like they will be adding the Purple Version on the Flametalon of Alysrazor up coming in 6.1
I'm glad they are adding previously designed/created mounts where they fit in tbh, I fear if they are left out for too long they won't graphically fit so well with how far the graphics can improve from expansion to expansion..

Hmm neat. I'm hoping if they do Farahlon we'll be seeing more of the pterrorwing mounts... kind of sucks we got only one. There are so many neat recolors that never got put into the game
Neiara - NE Hunter - Burning Blade (US) - Denial of Service
If anyone is interested, this is confirmed on the 6.1 PTR notes found on the front page of MMO-Champion so they are indeed introducing this mount.
Also, this mount requires Level 100 and is delivered through in-game mail so is most likely an achievement award. Letter says "I believe you misplaced this in the void. Be more careful next time %T."
Thanks for the further details! I get home tomorrow and will start hunting to find its source, if it hasn't been located by then.
It is very cool they're finding a place for it in the game. The only one left is the green one. I guess it could become a fel-corrupted one in the future, much like the flying version did.
If I had to guess I would say it is a reward for "Glory of the Blackrock Raider," just because the other purple firelands bird was, but I'm hoping that's not the case.
I would prefer a unique skin for the glory achievements because those aren't always easy to do and increased difficulty should have increased reward in my opinion.
Maybe there will be a new Shadowmoon-void-like faction in 6.1 that rewards the mount.
Edit: By "unique skin," I mean similar to how Throne of Thunder had the SkyScreamer and Siege had the armored proto drake as opposed to a recolor.
Then again there have been some recolor mounts as glory achieves in the past so who knows lol
I can't remember the text of any previous "Glory" mails but the one for the Voidtalon certainly gives nothing away. It's really hard to guess what it might be for from the mail, but perhaps it's a placeholder.
