Indeed, Milka doesn’t wander around the house much, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t know what’s going on. One of the advantages of her private location in the house, is that she can easily overhear the conversations being held in rooms on the second floor. The only separation between the five rooms and the low and narrow attic is a thin plank ceiling. As regards to what takes place on the bottom floor, she gets regular updates from Oved.

The young girl’s questions bother her. Though, she isn’t the first to ask them. It’s only natural to wonder where all the other spirits are located, but, as opposed to the others, who know the answer in their heart of hearts, and therefore prefer not to discover them, Noga is seeking answers. This is why Milka takes the trouble to flee from the attic as soon as she understands that Noga is looking for her. She is accustomed to making quick get-aways. Her controversial work has often led her to flee and hide, sometimes to protect her life. She is always saved because although so many people dislike and fear her, they often need her services. Even the King of Israel, who sought to persecute all the sorcerers and soothsayers, in the end came seeking her help.

She isn’t bothered by what Helen says about her. Worse things have already been said about her. Perhaps, Helen doesn’t attribute much importance to her status, but she is narrow-minded and not particularly smart. She had also come upon people like that more than once in her life. They would hate her and make fun of her, but in a time of crisis they would come to her frightened and shameless, swallowing their pride to get a few snippets of information to help them in times of trouble. It didn’t always help. Milka could call up the spirits her clients wanted to commune with, but she had no control over what they would say. She made her name as a serious and reliable medium, and earned many enemies. Souls whose rest is disturbed, aren’t quick to forgive. On the other hand, there are souls that are easy to call up because they are closer—but even from these, Milka seeks protection. These are complex, tormented souls, the stray spirits, trapped in the sling shot, that wander and roam around the world and find no respite or rest. These souls search in vain for that which can no longer be found. These souls respond to her call immediately. They welcome anything that can ease their situation. Some are begging to atone, some are angry and seek revenge, some lose hope. All of them return to where they come from when they discover that their return does not alleviate their suffering. This is why Milka prefers to stay. She knows what awaits her and wishes to avoid it. Now, after all these years, she still is not certain if she has made the right decision, but she knows that it is not within her ability to change anything.
