It is said at various points in the series that wisdoms who can listen to the wind and who are exceptionally good at healing are in reality channeling. Why are there no indication that these women live to be very old? One would expect at least some of them to become several hundred years old.
Even in our own world. These channeling Wisdoms would blend right in.

Them leaving and moving to a different area is the only reasonable explanation.

Actually, it's worse, because she wouldn't be a long-lived OLD woman, but rather a forever-young one *NM*
