Merlon's help is required when several black [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s block the way to the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]]. When [[Mario]] first tries to enter his house, Merlon knocks him unconscious for a brief moment when he slams open the door. Inside, Merlon attempts to relay a story to Mario, though puts him to sleep with his rambling. After this, Mario can guide him to the Toads, prompting Merlon to use his magic to blow away their disguises, revealing their true identities as the [[Koopa Bros.]], at which point they retreat to their fortress.

During Chapter 3, Merlon can be found standing outside of his house. If Mario speaks to him, he tells Mario of an oracle that spoke to him in his sleep, telling him to walk around a red palm tree. This serves as a hint toward obtaining the [[Quick Change]] [[badge]], as doing this in [[Dry Dry Outpost]] prompts a nearby [[Dryite]] to inform Mario of a dream they had, indicating the badge's existence in Merlon's own house. Once the badge is revealed, Merlon tells Mario he was unaware of the badge being in his attic, and recommends he put it on.
