maybe these are just "dream" souls. So each soul killed is implanted in the killers mind for each time it was killed. During the VotD dream, each one of these killed soul implantations is attacking the dreamer, not the soul itself.
Yup. I came across a description of a real-world thing much like VotD, and I think the Devs used it as the basis for the spell. After battle, some New Guinea tribesmen have nightmares where they are cut off from their friends and are battling all the people they've killed recently. It's apparently related to what we call "post-traumatic stress disorder". Lawrence Keeley mentions it in War before Civilization.
