Summary
A mass grave is discovered at the edge of the desert, and in it 20 corpses with strange circuitry-like marks on their skin, and masks fused to their faces – masks inscribed with a strange, nearly extinct language that can only be read by a dangerous, reclusive Eremite Tribe . . . and, inexplicably, by Alhaitham.
Perhaps he should be more bothered by the fact that he never actually studied or learned this language than he is, but as Alhaitham heads out to investigate the grave with Cyno, to learn what happened to these people, there are plenty more pressing problems to worry about. Assassins, betrayal, and ancient secrets plague them on their path to uncover a dangerous plot that threatens all of Sumeru, and suddenly it’s all they can do to survive. With allegiances shifting like the desert sands and primordial powers stirring, Cyno suddenly finds himself unsure of who can really be trusted, while Alhaitham . . . Alhaitham finds himself in a fight for his very soul . . .

Summary
"Obligate style hearkens aflame this robust earth."
According to Sinclair, this is what Ryōshū says when Dante orders her to utilize her personal E.G.O, the sword and sheath that she keeps by her side at all times. Dante... doesn't have even the slightest idea what that means, which is nothing new when it comes to Ryōshū, but something about it doesn't sit quite right with them.
Maybe they're just seeing something that isn't there. It certainly doesn't square with how Ryōshū is most... no, almost all of the time. Ryōshū herself would almost certainly glare a hole through Dante's clockface for even suggesting it. But the inflection in her voice, the way she holds the sword close to her body before using it, as if she's clinging onto it, and that muted expression on her face, behind her eyes...
Is that... sorrow?
A speculative take on Ryōshū's backstory, (very) loosely based on Ryūnosuke Akutagawa's Hell Screen.

Summary
"Tomorrow is broken. Tomorrow is nowhere."
A year has passed since the Phantom Thieves struck down a god and saved Tokyo from a terrible fate. But when people all over the globe begin to suffer from "Paranoia Syndrome," mysterious seizures which leave them contorted and unconscious, Akira Kurusu finds himself in the Velvet Room once more, demanding answers for the affliction. His investigation leads him to the Dead Sea, the rotted remnants of the cognitive world, where all things go to be forgotten - including someone the Thieves had thought to be long gone.
Meanwhile, Akira's comatose body is found in the waking world, and his terrified friends suspect the worst. Akira's confidants struggle to learn the truth behind Paranoia Syndrome, while he and Goro Akechi approach a fated confrontation in the decaying shell of the cognitive Tokyo. As the sickness continues to spread, the Phantom Thieves must reunite and destroy the evil festering beneath the Dead Sea's waters, before its malignant influence unravels civilization forever.
