The two are summoned by [[Bishop Ladja]] to kill [[Pankraz]] in the [[Ancient Ruins]] and fail to do so, being unable to stand up against Pankraz's might. In response, Ladja holds [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|The Hero]] at neckpoint, threatening to kill The Hero with his scythe and condemn his soul to eternity of damnation in [[Nadiria]] if Pankraz does not stand down. Pankraz complies, thus allowing Slon and Kon to throttle him until his HP runs out. Ladja delivers the killing blow, and the three take The Hero and Prince [[Harry]] to [[Crocodilopolis]] to be slaves while the [[Great sabrecub]] is left behind. | ||

Slon is guarding the [[Dragon's left eye]] while Bishop Ladja is guarding the other eye, both being dispatched after [[Zenithia]]'s partial restoration to prevent the party from fully restoring the flying castle to it's original splendor. He does not seem to recognize The Hero, only knowing him as a threat to the Order of Zugzwang that must be snuffed out. Unlike most other major bosses, Slon's death is not visualized on-screen, with him simply disappearing after his defeat. | ||
