Might death start to appear unnatural? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

forced

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'unnatural?' is the definition.
('forced' can be similar in meaning to 'unnatural')

'might death start to' is the wordplay.
'might' becomes 'force' (I've seen this in another clue).
'start to' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'death' is 'd'.
'force'+'d'='FORCED'

'appear' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for forced that I've seen before include "Not spontaneous" , "Like early rhubarb" , "Compelled, coerced" , "Compelled, made to do something" , "compulsory" .)
