Well I did it again on my way back. Was trying to dig out a new, safer path back so I could avoid ghasts more easily, accidentally moved too quickly and fell into a huge pool of lava. Once again narrowly escaped death by quickly digging out.
This time, I got myself lost trying to find my way back to my normal Nether areas, and next thing I knew, I found what I believe to be Forest Spirit's territory.
To put it simply, he makes my stuff look like child's play.
