Hmm, I differ in my interpretation of "high places." It means people who
occupy positions of high visibility, usually in government jobs, but could also
be those in teaching, clerics, etc. who are able to influence others by setting
the pace, or setting the example for others to follow. A wicked king, like
Saul, for instance, usually led Israel to do evil, as they watched his bad
example. Monkey see, monkey do, as they say.

I don't think she meant that they left town. Paul speaks about the evil
spirits being in the air, working in the children of disobedience from
there.
Ephesians 2:2
(2) Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world,
according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh
in the children of disobedience:
Ephesians 6:12
(12) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.
The phrase "high places" refers to the heavenlies. The NASB translates this
passage in the following way:
Ephesians 6:12
(12) For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the
rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness,
against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Peace be with you.
