Beacon Hills is the beacon for the supernatural and now that the nemeton's charged beause of Allison, Scott and Stiles sacrifices, I think leaving permanently would be like a nail trying to free itself from a magnet. However likely, it's just my theory though. If Scott, Malia, Kira, Issac, Cora, Derek, and Peter can leave Beacon Hills at will, I'm pretty sure the Yukimura family can aswell.

The Nemeton attracts supernatural creatures like a beacon attracts whatever's looking for the beacon. It doesn't keep them from leaving the town. The only reason Cora came back and didn't permanently leave is because she was captured by the Alpha pack. I said permanently. I'm not considering the Mexico trip (that's not permanent) and the characters who left because their actors left (that's permanent permanent).

While we don't fully understand how this beacon thing works, it's safe to say that Beacon Hills draws, rather than attract, creatures (or draws back, in the case of Kate, Noshiko, Deucalion, etc.) in a myriad of ways, all involving the supernatural phenomena happening within the borders. I mean, for every one of them, there would always be a big, inevitable reason to return...unless the actor gets written off, that is. lol
