Like the villains straight out of freaking Gotham City, Blizzard made sure World of Warcraft is full of secrets, and one of the game's latest puzzles took a group of Caped Crusader Worthy players two freaking weeks to complete, earning them one of the most unique looking mounts available.
Along with all the other stuff, Patch 7.2 also included one of the craziest easter egg hunts that had players literally traveling all over the world of Azeroth looking for tiny pieces of freaking paper! Although each one did give a clue to the next one's location, it was nearly impossible for them to decipher. Eventually, they made their way to the finale and received the very cool flying mounts called the Riddler's Mind-Worm.
One of those heroic players even put together a helpful little walkthrough and threw it up on Imgur for the rest of us:

It all started in Dalaran, with the first page on a bookshelf in the Legerdemain Lounge. Right-click it, and you get its page number and a clue where to find the next one.
According to Imgur user Nightswifty, you have to read the pages in order or else they won't appear in the world.
Don't expect to get much info from clues such as "... of sea, spirit and self..." and "... the wind, the eye...". And if you have an actual copy of World of Warcraft: Chronicle Volume 1, the in-game pages also refer to pages in the real-life book, which also shed a bit more light about the clues.
But it was still extremely difficult, considering the players could only pinpoint rough guesses of locations and had to spend a lot of time covering every inch of suspected zones in order to find the tiny pages.
Nightswifty emphasized that this hunt was a team effort, giving credit to the World of Warcraft secret-finding Discord channel.
