Last time (the only time) this happened to me I was having trouble finding the path to sire so I ran around in the area outside the sire lair (map coordinates 3040,4780. I can't get in rn because no task). Like run around in that area (or just afk because dev life) before the path for about 10 minutes, the sire should stop spawning after the first kill. At least last time that's what I think caused it for me.

After testing with Thierryu1 just now, waiting 10 minutes caused it to not even spawn the first time. So possibly waiting some amount of time less than that will give a limited number of spawns.
To add on, I did not wait around when I attempted to kill Sire for the first time. I entered the lair and it did not spawn, so I tele'd out and waited 10 minutes and tried again. I attempted this multiple times both waiting outside of the lair and in edgeville.

That's a very interesting theory. Thanks a lot for the info, I'll be sure to try this and see if I can get it to stop spawning.
