I've had a thought! Maybe we see Martha getting beaten up by the imps because that's what the kids THOUGHT had happened to her. They thought the story about imps sweeping people away was real, so when she just disappeared one day, maybe they assumed that the imps had come and swept her away?

or maybe the kids were incognito and gave her an old fashion hang and drag 0_0

I think she was seen as a witch by the kids because she would probably be meticulous in cleaning and all that, but I do believe that she was just someone who was kinda dragged into everything against her will. I mean, anyone'd be freaked out to see the Stray Dog thing...

Yeah, but she seems to have seen a more mild version of it than what it ultimately became.

I think Martha left because the kids were so mean and unappreciative of her. There she was living in a storeroom, cleaning night and day, taking the role of the only adult in the house after Hoffman abandoned them, there are children training farmers to be dogs in the fields and even after all that flack the kids are running around calling her a witch! Now that’s a hard knock life. I think that’s why we see the imps attack her, as a representation of the children they are instead physically attacking and binding her.
I think Martha being killed by the imps, then returning later bound and beaten is a case of Jen over embellishing her memories, but later rethinking how violent things really did occur in reality. (When we see Martha in the Bird Of Happiness chapter it almost looks like she’s suffered severe brain damage, just by the way she’s only barely squirming, ick!)

The kids were wild as-is, but they were becoming psychotic. Hoffman had left, so why should she bother staying?

Personal responsibility. I don’t like to think there are many people out there who would just up and walk a way from a boarding house full of young children.

That was a rhetorical question.: P I was saying it from her point of view-she'd lost all reason to stay in her eyes.
