Using Input() in If...Elif Statements

[Shemira]

Well, what I want to happen is, when the user types hunt, they encounter a slime. When they type heal, they restore their health; the print statements represent those actions. I have the while loop so that they can heal or hunt more than once. If they do not type either hunt or heal, it will do the else statement, then they can type hunt or heal. However, what is happening is, when I store the input in a variable, and I check if that variable equals either hunt or heal, they can type hunt and encounter a slime. If they type heal, however, it goes straight to the else statement, and seems to skip the elif statement. Any advice?
