The Lucid Nightmare was a puzzle trail hidden inside the massively multiplayer online role-playing game World of Warcraft, made by Blizzard Entertainment. The end goal of the puzzle trail was to unlock a mysterious mount, which is called Lucid Nightmare.
The primary solving hub for this puzzle is the WoW General Secret Finding Discord, and most of the information from this wiki is taken from this Google Doc.
Clue 1
On August 30, 2017, an Inconspicuous Note was discovered in Curiosities and Moore, Dalaran (Broken Isles). In order to unlock the next clue, you must activate the Inconspicuous Note! After being activated, the note reads:
It begins in the 2104059. With a most pleasing sign. (These letters will not always rhyme.)
The seven numbers in the first line are an anagram for a date: 4-15-2009. This date was the release date of Ulduar, another in-game region.
Accordingly, the next clue was found in Ulduar.
Clue 2
After heading to Ulduar and killing Flame Leviathan and XT-002 Deconstructor, a lever can be found on Mimiron's head at coordinates (45.70, 12.01) in the boss room. When activated, this lever creates a 20 by 20 grid of lights. These lights can be manually toggled by the player.
Toggling these lights into a specific pattern (the pleasing sign mentioned in the first Inconspicuous Note) creates another Inconspicuous Note in the center of the room, as shown below:
The initial 20x20 light grid
The correct pattern of illuminated lights
The Inconspicuous Note that spawns in the middle of the room reads as follows:
1000 years imprisoned. Surely it weighs on the mind.
