- "Stay, friend. Have you heard of the rumors of the Devourer of Men? Menfolk and womenfolk both are goin' missin' over by yonder Forest of No Return. Hence the name, ye see. 'Tis a grim business, friend, so tread warily in those parts." —Gossipy Townsperson in Victors Hollow
Forest of No Return is a dungeon in Octopath Traveler. This optional forest dungeon is located west of Victors Hollow, and has the highest Danger Level of any location in the middle ring of Orsterra.
Description[]
The Forest of No Return is a dangerous, dark woods. Near its entrance lies a robber's campsite, and at its far end, heaps of bones are around the boss area. As its name would suggest, few who venture into this forest ever live to tell the tale.
NPCs[]
Ellie - A girl from Victor's Hollow who has been missing for some time. Approaching her triggers the boss fight of the area. She must be Guided or Allured back to the Laconic Father NPC for the side story Into Thin Air.
Bandit Leader - An ordinary NPC under most circumstances. If the side story Again with Alaic is active and the player is either Guiding or Alluring Alaic, talking to him triggers a boss fight.

Trivia[]
- Given its position next to Victors Hollow, the Forest of No Return could have been Olberic’s Chapter 2 dungeon if his story didn’t preclude a second dungeon in favor of the arena.
