The AV timer got knocked incorrectly off schedule due to me having to start the event to fix the death state of the NPCs. Since the server had not restarted, it internally remembered when I disabled the event, and scheduled a 24-hour restart time for the event.
I've scheduled a restart for tonight that will reset it back to its normal day-time.
