It is a common issue for players to get stuck on Fern’s mascot quest, even after receiving the quest board from him. The solution is often a small, easily missed step involving how the quest board is activated.

The Most Common Mistake: Forgetting to Add the File to the Board
The number one reason for this quest not progressing is that the quest board and the quest file are two separate items. The board Fern gives you is just the base; you must manually place the quest file onto the board to officially activate the quest objectives.
How to Activate the Mascot Quest
Follow these steps to ensure the quest is properly started:
- Place the Quest Board: If you haven’t already, place the quest board Fern gave you somewhere inside your bookshop.
- Locate the Quest File: Look in your inventory for the mascot quest “file” or “paper.” It is a separate item from the physical board.
- Combine the Items: Select the quest file from your inventory and drag and drop it directly onto the quest board you placed in your shop.
- Check for Progress: Once the file is placed on the board, the quest should become active, and you will be able to see the first objective. This should also allow you to continue building your friendship with Fern.
After activating the quest, your next steps will likely involve speaking with Fern again and then equipping a specific quest item (like the mascot costume) to your wagon to show it to the townspeople.
