I was fighting the cumans in the camp SE of Talmburg. I was using bow and arrow. Backpedal like crazy, shoot one of 'em. Backpedal and shoot. Etc. They caught up to me so I pulled my sword.
In the process of backpedaling, I think I back pedaled into a bush next to the road.
Then something really weird happened - I was flying above the road!
The cumans couldn’t touch me, so I pulled out the bow again and started raining arrows on them.
Then came the tough part, how to get my feet back on the ground! I hiked across the air until I interested the nearby hillside. My feet made contact and I started going up the hill. I turned around but when I got back to my “flying” elevation once again I was walking on air.
I finally solved the issue by getting onto the ground on the hillside, whistling for my trusty steed, and mounting him. I was then able to ride him back down to the road surface, tracked down and killed the remaining cumans in that area.
I guess Henry was just getting high…
