I always assumed that it was about to kill her (or 
"prevent her from manifesting herself" in that 
place) and she was just afraid of it.

Furthermore, I suspect that Sethra was 
given a choice "God-hood or Morrolan".  
I think it was "dangerous for her to 
keep it" was because she is 1. a vampire 
2. tempted by god-hood.  Also, I kinda 
think of Sethra as "Verra the Younger".  
Role-playing is god-hood for the masses.
