The body of Lauren was reaching its limits, strained by both physical damage as well as the damage the previous possessor had left as well as use of too much magic at once. It almost could no longer contain the vast energy that had been accumulating inside of it over the course of months, this being evident by the heat that seemed to build beneath the skin.
