Qasim, a burly ex-soldier of the Allied Army of the East, possesses a stout build, broad nose, thick brows, and prominent sideburns. His gruff exterior belies a conscience haunted by guilt over civilian deaths caused under military orders during past quarantine operations. Tormented by these actions, he dedicates himself to atonement, aiding orphans and accepting high-risk missions—including acting as live bait during an insect extermination beneath E-05—driven by remorse stemming from events five years prior.

His efforts to relocate civilians to safer zones occasionally meet resistance, exemplified by Lygi’s refusal to attend E-01’s school despite his advocacy. Yet his unwavering commitment to redemption manifests in saintly devotion to protecting orphans and vulnerable communities, balancing tactical rigor with compassion.

Once an enforcer of destructive commands, Qasim now pursues moral restitution, his military discipline channeled into safeguarding those he once endangered. The tension between his past and present defines his journey—a soldier’s pragmatism intertwined with a penitent’s resolve to mend what was broken.
