The bros have returned to the real world after finding out that Peach has already been kidnapped and the one they've been dealing with is a fake. Broque Madame informed them that the proprietor of Pi'illo Island, Dr. Snoozemore, has returned, so they return to Pi'illo Castle. Broque Monsieur tells the bros that his promotional tour has ended and that he is in the underground collection room. Go south from the warp pipe, down the stairs, and through the doorway at the bottom.
Dr. Snoozemore is here and welcomes the bros. He falls asleep from time to time. Dreambert says the island is in chaos. Snoozemore is amazed to see a Pi'illo. He receives an explanation and understands. They want to infiltrate Neo Bowser Castle and take down Antasma, but can't right now. Snoozemore mentions the Zeekeeper. He says the Zeekeeper lived in harmony with the Pi'illos and protected the kingdom from danger. Snoozemore says to find the Zeekeeper somewhere in the dream world and convince him to help. Dreambert says the Zeekeeper possesses a beam that could shatter the castle's barrier. Snoozemore asks if Dreambert has seen anything Zeekeeper-related in the dream world. Dreambert mentions seeing a strange statue of the Zeekeeper in Dreamy Pi'illo Castle. It might have a clue. Luigi takes a nap and Mario enters the dream world.
Dreambert mentions seeing a Zeekeeper statue behind the Pi'illo symbol door. He opens the door for the bros. There's a light coming out of the floor, like the light that leads to Dream's Deep. Follow the light back into Dream's Deep. This part of Dream's Deep has a Zeekeeper statue. Dreambert learned here how to summon the Zeekeeper long ago. He says it's not easy to call him and he doesn't remember how. He says to look around for clues.
On the right wall is a switch. Hitting it makes one of the circles on the Zeekeeper light up. Follow the dotted lines to either the left or right. To the right are Dark Blocks, which are enemies. Some may transform before you hit them. Hit them from above if you can. In battle, they will hover over Mario. Hit them from below to count down from a certain number. They move around, making this difficult. Once they count down to zero, they change appearance. If they don't count down to zero, they'll transform and attack. They'll also fly overhead with spikes and brick blocks. Try to hit them or they'll transform. If they change appearance and you hit them as part of your attack, they'll turn into item blocks and give you something. They can transform back into Dark Blocks if they are not defeated quickly enough.
There's a constellation Luiginary Work to the right. Dreambert did not think one would appear and doesn't think there's a lot of room to maneuver. Dreamy Luigi says his mind has opened to another shape. Send him into the Work, then press [R] twice to make the Luiginoids form a ball. Use the Circle Pad to roll around. Build up enough speed while going to the left to reach new heights. Roll to the right. Roll around and you'll eventually reach a dead end. A Luiginoid says they can form a chain to grab onto stuff, like the loop floating around. Press (B) to make a chain of Luiginoids pop out and aim, then (B) again to fire. If you attack to something and want to let go, press (A). This new move is called the Hookshot. Grab onto the loop to the upper right that's on a track. The loop will be target when the bros are aimed correctly. It will take you up to a higher part. Roll to the right, off the ledge, and drop down. Roll to the left, remove Luigi from the Work, go up the stairs and you'll find another switch. This makes another circle on the Zeekeeper light up. Go to the lower left.
Walk to the left and the area will wrap around to the right, but a little higher than before. Walk to the left for a coin, then walk back right to wrap up even higher. Walk to the left to reach the Work. There are wheels overhead to Hookshot to, allowing you to climb up. Wait for the right wheel to be target to Hookshot to it. Go to the left twice. Walk over the rocks, then drop down between them. Form the ball and the bros get an idea to have Mario swing the ball around like an Olympic hammer. This breaks the rocks. In ball form, just press (A). Pressing (A) again will make Mario throw the ball and it will come back. You can aim with the Circle Pad. Dreambert calls is the Ball Hammer. Return to the right. Swing the Ball Hammer at the lower set of rocks without throwing it to destroy them all as they fall. Hookshot to the loop. Destroy the rocks at the top to reach the switch. Now that all three circles have lit up, go right to return to the Zeekeeper statue.
In the light, symbols appear. Dreambert says they're Pi'illo characters. They say, "All those who seek the Zeekeeper's powe, you must make the Ultibed. It is constructed of five parts. The Pajamaja Rock Frame... It rests on Mount Pajamaja. The Dozing Mattresss... sleeps in Dozing Sands. The Mushrise Tree Board... rises in Mushrise Fields. Driftwood Jellyfish Sheets... drift on Driftwood Shore. The Zeekeeper's Feathers... An heirloom of Pi'illo Castle. All five parts must be assembled by a Bedsmith. The Bedsmiths will gather on Wake Isle. Find the five parts and give them to a Bedsmith. Only then can the Ultibed be completed." And you thought "making a bed" entailed tidily arranging pillows and sheets. Dreambert mentions some of the names may have changed slightly but refer to the same location. Something drops down. It's a pamphlet of what Dreambert just translated. He says if Luigi sleeps on the Ultibed, they should be able to enter the dream world where the Zeekeeper is. The manual can be found in the menu under "Guide". It suggests the bros go to Mount Pajamaja first.
Exit Dream's Deep and Broque Monsieur calls to someone to wait. A Gold Beanie runs past the bros through the door. Broque Monsieur drops in, saying that was the rarest of monsters. He says there's a nice prize for beating it. Dreambert says it only exists in dreams and those who defeat it reap great rewards. Maybe it only appears in dreams on Pi'illo Island. It flees the moment it is seen. The bros accept the challenge, but Dreambert reminds them their priority is the Ultibed. If they find one on the way, they can battle it. Return to the real world. Dreambert brings Starlow and Snoozemore up to speed. While you're here, you can explore new areas of the castle from the room where the moving platform into the depths of the castle is. One of the rooms has a wrestling ring in it. A Brock outside says there's a rumor of a place where one can fall asleep and battle champions. Dreambert says this place hasn't changed. He says it's the Battle Ring, a Dreampoint where you can dream about fighting foes you've already encountered that are even stronger. Prizes are awarded for victory. When you're ready, head for Mount Pajamaja. If you're traveling by warp pipe, select the base of the mountain, as we don't know where the Rock Frame is.
