It reminded me of the story of Prometheus, actually---eagles gnaw liver during day, liver grows back during night. There's also a Sisyphean quality to it---neverending torment. Outsiders being killed becoming part of the madness was something I was expecting, because isn't that what happens to those killed by zombies? So I think it is pretty much Sanderson arriving there independently. If you start thinking about horrible things that will happen all throughout the world because Armageddon is just around the corner, something like that would just crop up...
