Horsemen of Time

Horsemen of Time Act One

by Arts

There was a time when I felt swallowed by a creative void—haunted by one theme I couldn’t shake: death. Heavy, yes, but in that darkness, I found a strange kind of spark. Ideas began to crawl out of the shadows, and one question refused to leave me alone: what if death itself walked among us in flesh and form? That became the heartbeat of this project.

This project wouldn’t exist without a dream team of friends. Architect Rembrandt “Von” Espinosa kicked things off with sketches and digital art that gave form to the vision. Raffy Dematawaran painted Act 1 with hauntingly beautiful digital pieces. Then Tommy Sappal came in with colors that set the perfect mood. And me? I wove the story and shaped the characters that tie it all together. Total team magic.

Now I’m thrilled to share Act 1 of our manga comic, Fall From Elysium, republished here on my site. It’s also up on Webtoon—if it resonates, I’d love your support with a vote. This journey has been intense, creative, and so rewarding, and I can’t wait for you to step into the world we built.

Horsemen of Time Act Four

by Arts

Welcome to Act Four of Horsemen of Time: The Plague. This chapter peers into the fractured soul of Death—not the silent reaper we imagine, but a being caught between love, consequence, and the weight of eternity. What happens when Death learns to feel? What happens when no one dies? Immortality may sound like mercy, but in truth it unravels the balance of life, leaving behind only endless suffering.

In this act, we follow Death’s struggle for redemption, his choices bleeding across time itself. He is torn between the pull of love and the crushing cost of existence, his every decision spreading ripples through the world. This isn’t simply a tale of endings—it’s a mirror reflecting how fragile and precious life truly is. By exposing Death’s vulnerability, the story asks us to confront our own: who we are, what we value, and why our connections matter.

The journey of The Plague wouldn’t exist without the brilliant artists who helped shape its vision. Rembrandt “Von” Espinosa set the stage with his evocative sketches and digital art. Raffy Dematawaran gave Act One its haunting mood with his paintings. Tommy Sappal wove the atmosphere tighter with color that set the tone. And I, Rodny Mella, stitched together the story that binds it all. Together, we’ve created a world where mortality is not an end, but a question begging to be asked. Read Act Four now on Webtoon—if you dare to walk beside Death.
