...Members of his clan should be attempting to rescue him. [Not that they have any way of keeping track of that.] But they may be delayed. If his fever does not break...
[Even magical healing abilities can only do so much, when you're malnourished, dehydrated, and trapped in a cave.]
[It's a difficult question, though not, perhaps, for the obvious reason. It's more that answering something like "strength" would feel like bragging, treading too closely to breaking a rule ("Arrogance is forbidden").

[Technically yes, he supposes, but phrasing it like that feels... chaotic, somehow. More like Wei Wuxian than him. He’s quiet for a moment, thinking about it.]
It is important to consider all paths. Thorough investigation often reveals the best course of action.
[So yes, as far as necessary—but not in the sense of charging recklessly into situations.]
