It's time again for another Let's Make a Collage ("LMAC") Round. I'm here again to bring for your enjoyment complimentary collages with fairy tale or unexplained themes.
To create the setting, I started with the photograph provided by @shaka in his contest post: Let's Make a Collage - A Contest for All Creatives on Hive - Round 139 - ✨187 HIVE in the Prize Pool!

COLLAGE #1: Taming The Evil Angel
In my collage theme, I have a fairy tale setting. The elf of the forest is attempting to persuade the angel to turn from evil and do good. His magical pipe dulls the senses and removes all traces of evil if he can reach the evildoers in time so they won't destroy the forest and its inhabitants.
Fairy tales were created as an avenue to escape reality. The fanciful collection of both magical and beings and animals and far away places delighted our senses when we were young. Sometimes happy; other times sad, but always with a moral or food for thought to guide us on our journey in the real world. Of course, we know that fairy tales aren't real.
However, the life lessons I recalled have stayed with me. For instance, the little pig who built his house of straw. It didn't take much to destroy it. I signify this with any area of one's like in which the foundation is shaky. It will crumble.
To create the collage, I uploaded the contest photo and all images into Canva to be blended utilizing my Annual Pro Membership Subscription. I first thought of a fairy tale theme when I located a free image that resembled a man with a hat that contained a small forest setting with beings protruding. The images from the LIL pulled it all together to create a fairy tale scene.

COLLAGE #2: In Search of
Stories told to us in our youth of imaginary people, places, and things make us wonder if there's any truth to it. Adrian had always wondered what it would be like to discover the truth of such wonders. Of particular interest was a monster in the sea. He couldn't shake from his thoughts the Loch Ness mystery.
After hearing of strange incidences in the lake near his home, one night he set out to finally learn the truth.
To create the collage, I located an awesome alien dinosaur in a dark setting. It was perfect as a double for Loch Ness. Other images from the IL were perfect in blending the scene together. This was especially true of the van from @seckorama with monster designs on its side.
Again, I uploaded all images into Canva to compile my collage theme.
