ansi color code issue

So I was in the protected portion of Eshval's shrine yesterday (don't ask) and I looked at this "pit" fixture that was in one of the rooms. When you look at it, you get a description in normal text, then a second portion in bright green. Like when someone sends you a tell. However, after I looked at it, all my text continued to be green, until I did something that caused another color code to be sent (like say something). It looks like the "terminating" color code is missing on that second bunch of text.
