Worth the walk?

Shuffle to get the blood vials

With a nearly exasperated sigh, Jessica turned around and began shuffling toward the floating corpse with the treasure strapped to his chest. The various limbs of the other deceased filled her peripheral vision, the perverse buzz of being alive amidst death hummed quietly in the back of her head, as she shuffled a wide arc to avoid one that was too close to her direct path.
The murk did get deeper, but only up to her knees, and her clothes were already truly soiled, and she soon reached her target in a matter of moments. The bandoleer slipped off the corpse easy enough. Though she had to withstand the hunter's eyeless gaze as she got the strap all the way off.

She briefly slipped one of the vials out, its thin red fluid wetly splashing the side the dark glass that contained it. If it could heal her like it did the hunter, she could sprint home easily. The device was even fit for easy self-injection. But she had also stayed as far as she could from the Blood ministration, at her aunt's behest, would it be worth ending that now?

Use it now?
