The location was always changing for me, so here's the coordinates for the soul pyre: 70.98, 38.45. Just go straight like you are going to Helheim, then turn left. So it's in the inside of Haustvald.

If Svergan is there already, the quest will not complete. You must wait for him to despawn to throw his belongings in the pyre.
It can take up to 6 minutes for him to despawn.
You can group with other warriors to complete it together.
This quest was bugged for me the first time I tried it. Maybe someone else was doing it but there was already a ghost kneeling in front of the brazier.
When I came back a second time the brazier was empty, I used the quest item and the ghost showed up and the quest went smoothly.

Description
The Bonespeaker mystics used these heirlooms to tie my soul to this world. Under their curse, my soul could not enter the Halls of Valor. Find the soul pyre in Haustvald and throw my belongings into the flames. The fire that bound my soul through their foul magic will be the same fire that undoes this bond!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Stolen Honor
Safeguarding the Gjallarhorn was my duty, <race>. I will do what is right, but first I must ask for your aid. My family was disavowed by the mystics of our time and this grave was ransacked. I cannot find peace while my family heirlooms are in the hands of the servants of the false God-King.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Svergan's Promise
I thank you for doing this for me. I swore an oath to protect the Gjallarhorn with my life, and so I did. You must tell Hymdall that his Gjallarhorn was devoured by the great worm, Jorhuttam! It devoured an entire army of my men who were swallowed whole trying to fend off the beast.
