Hey!

I have a question that I hope someone has some sort of knowledge in. In a story I am writing, the MC has had his eyes forcibly removed years ago. I have some scenes where he is crying, but I don't know if eye removal also destroys the tear ducts. Therefore I'm not sure if he would even shed tears. Some info on this would be great, thanks!

I don't think he would be able to cry. It just doesn't make sense.

Maybe what most people wanted wasn't immortality and fame, but the reassurance that their existence had meant something. No matter how long... or how brief. Maybe being eternal meant becoming a story worth telling.
