The fountain pen in Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2) is a requested item by the character Mary-Beth Gaskill as part of her errand. It is located in Osman Grove, a hut just east of Emerald Ranch and Emerald Station. In the game, Mary-Beth asks Arthur Morgan to find this fountain pen so she can write novels. The pen is found in a desk drawer inside the hut where the remains of a woman lie. To complete the errand, the player must first receive the request from Mary-Beth, which happens at the gang’s hideout in Chapter 2 during the day (between 8:00 to 20:00). After picking up the pen from Osman Grove, the player can return to Mary-Beth at camp and gift it to her by interacting with her, completing the companion request. It is worth noting that the fountain pen errand is missable and available primarily in Chapter 2, although some players have reported being able to complete it in later chapters. The pen can be accidentally sold to a fence or lost if certain game events occur, so players should be careful to keep it once acquired. In summary:
- Location: Osman Grove, east of Emerald Ranch
- How to get: Find the pen in a desk drawer in the hut
- Request giver: Mary-Beth Gaskill at the gang's camp in Chapter 2
- Purpose: Gift the pen to Mary-Beth to complete her errand
This fountain pen is a specific unique item related to Mary-Beth's errand, distinct from other pens players might find in the game world.
