is this "read bloody journal" as in reading a journal covered in blood, or reading a bloody journal in the swear sense?

It’s the first one; maybe my character dies, maybe the journal just gets covered in blood through glorious battle. We’ll see where the game takes me. 

Although if you want it to be the second one, by all means, let it be the second one.
