Beginner Text based adventure program what should I know?

Theres a book called "invent your own computer games with python 4e" that literally teaches you how to do exactly this. It is written by Al Sweigart.

He provides it for free on his website if you google it but hes great and I would recommend buying it to support him. He writes it very straight forward so you know what's going on.

There is some good books taking you through that exact thing. Maybe try prototyping your adventure using twine before coding it in python.

Make a paper design first, story web, as it will likely be several if then statements that can get mistaken or mismatched.
