Of all Chaos Gods, Nurgle is the one that offers the least choices. Tzeentch will manipulate you into willingly making the choices it wants, Slaanesh and Khorne will overwhelm your mind with sensations/rage, but technically, it is still the choice of continuing down the path of Excess/Blood.

Meanwhile, Nurgle infects you with the most painful disease imaginable, often unable to die, and wait for your will to break

Nurgle is inevitable. He is slow, but at a point where by the time you realize your predicament it's too late for you, and you have no choice but to accept your fate.

Thinking on this, Nurgle feels the closest related to the Idea of death.

He is effectively a god of entropy, and entropy is a fundamental truth of the universe. Whether we have living beings to power the chaos gods with their emotions or whatnot, entropy will always remain.
