Hi guys, after a week of struggling with this problem, i think i discovered my fix. I’m using 1.08 patch.
First of all, sorry for my bad english

The time i received the quest “Ugly Baby”, i step aside that quest and i started the quest “The Last Wish” of Yen. After “The Last Wish”, i tried to start the “Ugly Baby” quest.
Ok.. i also encountered the same problem with the sergeant, he keeps on telling me “nothing here for you”.
I already loaded my old save files (after the quest “The Last Wish”), meditated several hours/days, upgraded to patch 1.08.3, reinstalled the game and all DLCs but still no luck. I also reinstalled the game and use only 1.07 patch but i can’t load my save because it’s from 1.08 patch.
Again..desperately, i uninstalled the game and reinstalled it.. but i tried to change the installation path/folder. I patched the game to 1.08.3 (latest). I loaded my save (after the quest “The Last Wish”) but still i encountered the glitch with the sergeant. I loaded my old save (BEFORE the quest “The Last Wish”) travelled to Valen, and i noticed immediately the Stablemaster grooming the horse beside the Stable
I talked to the sergeant and the quest is now working...he told me to look for the Stablemaster. The map also has an indicator of the Stablemaster.


And that’s it.. i arrived at Kaer Morhen without any problem.
Btw, you need to finished the quest “Following The Thread” before talking to Stablemaster... and i think “The Last Wish” also..
Hope this helps!
