Starting Location: Till Death Do Us Part
To start the quest you must talk to two NPCs. First, you must talk to a man called Oswald. He’s found in Vernworth, standing next to a fountain at the northwest entrance to Noble Quarter district. He will tell you that the watchhead was dispatched on a mission to slay a dullahan, also known as the headless horseman.
Afterward you must talk to lady called Margit. She’s also in Vernworth’s Noble Quarter, in front of the house called “Watchhead’s Home”. She usually walks outside the entrance to the house during day. Exhaust her dialogues, choose to ask about Ser Ludolph, then it doesn’t matter if you tell her of Ludolph’s plot or tell her you don’t know (either option will result in her offering the quest). Then accept the quest from her. You will only get the quest if you previously talked to Oswald, otherwise the dialogue with Margit won’t advance.
Aid Gregor at the Illdoers’ Resting Place
You can track the quest to get a quest marker. You must go to an area called Misty Marshes, far northwest of Vernworth. You can either walk all the way, or if you don’t mind spending some gold you can pay 200 Gold to use the Oxcart Station at the northwest exit of Vernworth which brings you to Checkpoint Rest Town. If you get ambushed halfway during the ride you will be nearly at the target location, but this is a bit random. If you don’t get ambushed you can go back and forth between the Oxcart Stations and hope to get ambushed near the quest marker.
You can approach the quest marker from the southeast, where on the map you see the outline of a road leading to it from the river. The search area is surrounded by water but you can walk around it and approach from the north to get on the island where the Headless Horseman awaits. The exact path is outlined here:
The Headless Horseman spawns at night. You can rest at the campfire slightly west of the quest marker if needed.
Then you must defeat the Headless Horseman boss on the island in the search area. He will run away after a while when the night ends. So be quick to kill him. Level 30+ is recommended for this fight. An easy way is to use a mage and constantly cast Palladium (or High Palladium if you have it unlocked), which will negate all incoming damage. Heal your teammates with Anodyne if you’re a mage. The boss has high resistance to ice, so don’t bother using ice magic.
If you defeat the Headless Horseman before he runs away, you will unlock Before Dawn Breaks. If you miss the trophy here, don’t worry as this enemy type respawns in random locations at night throughout the game, so you can still earn this anytime later. In the open world they are completely random however, whereas this side quest provides a guaranteed spawn.
Report back to Margit
All that remains is to return to Margit in Vernworth’s Noble Quarter. She will be standing with her husband in front of Watchhead’s Home.

Probably slightly too late to be helpful but if you’re like me and Gregor died, you can still complete this quest and get the good ending. Being the player that i am i didn’t want him to die but when he died i wanted to try something. I picked up his body and ran all the way to Venworth with it and resurrected him and to my surprise the quest updated and when i went to hand it in Gregor was there with his wife!

I rest at the camp until nightfall, the run straight down to kill the horseman. I have about 15-30 sec until he run away after I have removed about one health bar. I am close to level 50 and I have no idea how to beat him in such little time. Any ideas?
