Having no escape or way out; inescapable or unavoidable.
From 'escape' plus the Old English suffix '-less' meaning 'without' or 'lacking.' This forms the opposite of 'escapeful,' describing a situation with no exits.
The word 'escapeless' was used in medieval writings to describe dungeons and traps—it's the linguistic way to say 'you're stuck' with absolute finality!
