[@Paradoxial][@ClocktowerEchos] I do have a query, though I'm not trying to undermine Clock's acceptance. [quote]because his mind is completely filled with thoughts of his quest, [u][b]he frequently forgets to eat, sleep and drink[/b][/u] unless reminded or becoming almost too weak to continue. Instead of doing these things he relentlessly pushes onward, causing [u][b]his body to become hardened and have great stamina.[/b][/u][/quote] It's unclear to what extent you're trying to portray in which he forgets to eat, sleep, or drink; However, my perspective is that, based upon the line "unless reminded or becoming almost too weak to continue", that this happens until he is in, as you said, a weakened (and likely a frail) state. The cumulative effects of constantly bringing himself to this point doesn't exactley convey a "hardened" body with "great stamina". It sounds more as if he should be malnourished, sickly, and weak from improper care of himself. The actual query: How is he hardened with great stamina.
