Guards on oremites are weird. There are tricks for dealing with them that come up occasionally. To kill a guard on oremites with nothing else around, you need to get a bit away from him and get him to come after you in a straight line either north/south or east/west while you are one tile off from being in line with him. Here is a picture of what I am talking about.

You may need to back away a bit to get him to straighten his sword. But if you do this, you can let him come to you then just move to stab him.

I’ve made this exact typo myself. Why is it so tempting to type “oremites” when one means to type “orthosquares”. It’s one of the Great Mysteries of the Eighth.
