I don't know if it was a reference from something literary. But "the
Deep" in English often refers to the depths of the oceans; by extension
deep (far out) space; in this case the Beyond and its Bottom. Picture
the ocean, preferably at night so it's dark; then a great conflagration,
starting at the seafloor, then sweeping up through the volume. To me it
is a dramatic image. You could have the fire start at the top, too;
perhaps looking from the bottom, and seeing the fire of the Blight
burning the High Beyond and extending down.
I suppose one could attempt to link 'fire' to intelligence and reverse
the metaphor, but I'm feeling destructive these days. *WHOOMPH*.
Any other ideas?
