Complete Stop 1 of the Group Date Cafe in persona q shadow of the labyrinth. Get the Heart Mark key item and learn about the Messenger of Love FOE.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon entering the labyrinth, ignore the mechanical voice about a "destined partner" for now. Proceed to the first door and fight the Shadows (2 Lustful Snakes and 1 Tranquil Idol).
  2. 2
    The southern path leads to a locked door. Take the other door to a room with spiked tiles that drain SP. Avoid these tiles to reach a chest containing the Winged Sandals item.
  3. 3
    There are two doors in the next room: one in the southwest corner and one in the southern section. The southwest door is surrounded by SP damage tiles; take the southern door instead.
  4. 4
    Go south, avoiding the spiked tiles, and proceed through the next door. After a short cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically), continue through the next door to find a chest with the Lightning Gloves.
  5. 5
    A dead end to the south contains the Heart Mark key item, which is the second of four items needed for Zen’s weapon.
  6. 6
    Continue north and take the west detour to find a Power Spot. Proceed through the next door and open the shortcut just north of it.
  7. 7
    In the next room, you will be asked your first Destined Partner question.
  8. 8
    After answering, the chains will be removed. Move past the spiked floor tiles and go east to find a chest containing the Battle Camisole.
  9. 9
    Go west through the door to encounter the first FOE, the Messenger of Love. This FOE spins and will shoot an arrow if you cross its line of sight, reversing your controls. Time your movements to pass it when it is not looking.
  10. 10
    Head to the dead end to find tea that replenishes HP and SP.
  11. 11
    In the next room, you will be presented with a choice regarding Yosuke. Choose to take him to the Nurse’s Office later to make the Legendary Medicine request available.
  12. 12
    After this, you will see a Power Spot surrounded by spiked tiles. You can walk on them or use the Winged Sandals if you have them.
Tips
  • The Winged Sandals allow you to walk on SP damage tiles without losing SP.
  • The tea in the dead end can replenish your party's HP and SP.
  • The Messenger of Love FOE's arrow reverses your controls, so be mindful of its movement and line of sight.
