Welcome to Golden quest, a mainly text-based quest, punctuated from time to time with shitty pics I made! The expedition just began, but it’s already wrought with death.

I'm a terrible writer, so I'd appreciate any constructive criticism. Feel free to write down more detail when choosing an option too, It helps me out. This one will be different from last time.
Basic Rules
1. The option with the most votes after a certain time interval will be chosen.
2. Write-ins are accepted whenever the option is given.
2a. Within reason. Blatantly stupid ones will be shot down.
3. d20 rolls for skill checks.
4. Items in the inventory are usable at any point.
5. Survive.

Each vote time will be around 1 hour. I may shorten or lengthen though.
