Whose torch turned all to gold?

The phrase "whose torch turned all to gold" refers to the myth of King Midas from Greek mythology. Midas was granted the ability to turn everything he touched into gold by the god Dionysus. However, this gift quickly became a curse, as he was unable to eat or drink, and even his loved ones were turned to gold when he touched them. This story serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of greed and the consequences of one's wishes.
