Before you start your adventure, the party is granted a single boon by a powerful wizard who wishes to aid the next generation of heroes.
- At-will Town portal. You can open a one-way rift to the last safe haven you were at, such as a town, city, or castle you are welcome in. Once you pass through, the portal closes behind you.
- An airship. It is powered by coal and quite efficient. The airship is unique and only one exists, thus its destruction leaves you without it.
- A journal from an unspecified time in the future. It explains your next goal and what will happen, but is written in a vague and poetic manner.
- Hero's privilege. You will be provided food and lodgings, transportation, healing (including curse removal), item identification, and equipment repair at no cost.
Which one would you choose?

>An airship
Always go with this. Nevermind that it's useful, it's also fucking awesome.
How could any other options compare to soaring the skies, seeing everything from far up above, or being a motherfucking sky pirate (or sky freedom fighter)?

I'd pick at will town portal.
I'd go to a city I wanted a portal opened in. Then I'd travel to another city I wanted to open a portal in. However, I'd trigger my ability directly outside the second city, before its location reset again.
Given that the portal only closes once I pass through, I'd never pass through and the portal would remain open.
This would provide long distance instantaneous travel from the second town to the first town. This would allow unprecedented economic growth and prosperity.

This would make it impossible for you to enter any city without breaking it

Town Portal is the most useful and likely to save your bacon...probably multiple times.

This is how you start wars.

Portal trivializes dungeon crawling.
Airship is tempting, but impermanent.
Journal has no longer-term value.
Privilege lets me retire.
Portal seems like the obvious choice, but I pick Privilege.
Then I retire.

But if you retire you're no longer a Hero.

You seem to be missing the point of this thread.
Or you're just trying to be funny.

Swords and Sorcery, not Epic Fantasy.
My adventure consists of scraping pennies out of a murder-hole.
To that end: Privilege > Portal > Airship > Journal
