the first turnin gives 250 rep with Knights of the Ebon Blade, but subsequent turnins only give 10 rep each. now as to whether that rep goes all the way up to exalted, I'm not sure, but that sounds like a painful painful way to farm the rep up.

Description

One of the benefits of possessing this creature is that I have access to all of her powers. As a bone witch and rune reader, she has the power to throw the bones and determine one's fate. <The Bone Witch smirks.> Lucky for you and I that I have it within my power to influence those readings. Bring me the bones of the vrykul that you kill here in Jotunheim and I will toss them to allow you to determine your own fate.
