Immortal Forest

Hidden away within this black forest is a legendary flower that is rumored to hold the key to immortality: the amaranth. This wood is seductive, trapping its victims within its fingers of bark and leaves. The forest never loses its leaves in Leaf-fall or Leaf-bare. One cannot die within this forest. However, there is one thing. The Immortal Forest is lined with poisonous plants (laburnum, oleander, nightshade, laurel, and many others) as well as creatures who wouldn't normally live there. If one is attacked, leaving wounds that would be normally fatal, that thing would not die until it left the forest. Creatures find themselves bent to the forest's will; they cannot leave and their minds do not want them to leave. They are twisted and changed. Please, if you come here, merely skirt around the forest's edge. There is a high chance you will never escape the hand of the Immortals.
