Not sure if this is useful information to anyone, but the reputation reward is given immediately upon turning the quest in; it's not a token. So if there are any reputation buffs you want to apply (e,g, Darkmoon Faire's WHEE!), grab them before turning the quest in.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Regroup!K'aresh · Level 80

    We've stabilized most of the city and saved as many as we could, but our job isn't over. Locus-Walker must still be out there looking for the enemy commander. We've already searched over most of the city, so he must be in the one place we've not yet looked. Come, <name>. Meet me at Myza's Oasis.
