Starvation trap

Started a Mummy Necromancer, killed a rat, found myself forced to scythe through plants to escape. No weapons, scrolls, etc, just the rat and the wall of plants.
If I could starve this would probably be a game ender right there. As is, it's still ridiculously tedious. Is this intended to be a valid floor pattern, possibly killing off a character at generation for lulz?
I was going to upload a screenshot, but the forum seems to hate Android screenshots or something.

I'm having trouble visualising this situation. Could you help me out? If you had to go through plants, why don't you go back the way you came?
Or was the entry vault a wall of plants blocking your exit with the intention that the intrepid adventurer bash their way through? If so, you should be able to do it unarmed, even as a MuNu?

The second is true. I think they were worrying that a eating race could take long enough to bash through the plants that they could starve.

What game version are you playing? I think I know the entry vault you're talking about, and if I'm not mistaken, there's a secret door in the direction opposite the plants, if you're playing a version where secret doors still exist.

He's talking about the ovular dungeon entry vault filled with lava and water on opposing sides, with the only exit passable after detroying plants. If memory serves me, they used to be plants. The last game I fired up in trunk I got that entry vault, and the plants were replaced with mushrooms. So, problem solved, problem staying solved.
