It just might not be showing up, but you are supposed to get rep with all cities hadning in the items which releases the elemental, just not as much for the other cities. But also, even though you are getting the rep, it doesn't show up in the blue writing.

I don't know which mod it is, but somehow when I click on the quest giver, it just does all the options for me in about 1 second (chooses quest, accepts, completes). This is only for the AV quests though...hmm, is it relly a mod of mine or does that happen for everyone?
