Super late comment but this kind of custom is believed to have been used in the viking ages, just like in the game, the mens wives never went with them as they had other responsibilities. But in the event of a king or important persons death they would ask slaves and/or mistresses if they would like to join them in Valhalla, their afterlife, so again just like in the games, completely consensual. Plus CDPR based a lot of what we saw and heard on Scandinavian culture so I've always thought it came from there.
