An additional land card in hand. Magosi, the Waterveil has at least two eon counters on it. Magosi is untapped.
Steps
Activate Nesting Grounds's last ability by paying {1} and tapping it, moving an eon counter from Magosi to Nesting Grounds. Activate Magosi's last ability by tapping it, removing an eon counter from it, and returning it from the battlefield to your hand, taking an extra turn after this one. Play Magosi. Evolution Sage triggers, causing you to proliferate, putting an additional eon counter on Nesting Grounds. On your next extra turn, activate Nesting Grounds's last ability by paying {1} and tapping it, moving an eon counter from Nesting Grounds to Magosi. Repeat from step 2.

Evolution Sage + Emeria Shepherd + Fall of the Thran
- Infinite mana lands you control can produce

Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
Fall of the Thran has exactly one lore counter on it. You have at least four land cards in your graveyard, one of which must be a Plains. You have a land card in hand. You have a land drop available.
Steps
Play any land from your hand. The land enters the battlefield, triggering Emeria Shepherd and Evolution Sage. Resolve the Emeria Shepherd trigger, choosing not to return a permanent. Resolve the Evolution Sage trigger, putting a lore counter on Fall of the Thran. Fall of the Thran triggers, causing each player to return two land cards from their graveyard to the battlefield. The two lands enter the battlefield, triggering Emeria Shepherd twice and Evolution Sage twice. Resolve both Emeria Shepherd triggers, choosing not to return a permanent. Resolve the first Evolution Sage trigger, choosing not to proliferate. Resolve the second Evolution Sage trigger, putting a lore counter on Fall of the Thran. Fall of the Thran triggers, causing each player to return two land cards from their graveyard to the battlefield, in which one of your returned lands must be a Plains, and sacrificing Fall of the Thran. The two lands enter the battlefield, triggering Emeria Shepherd twice and Evolution Sage twice. Holding priority, activate all available lands you control by tapping them, adding at least {W}. Resolve the first Emeria Shepherd trigger, choosing not to return a permanent. Resolve the first Evolution Sage trigger, choosing not to proliferate. Resolve the second Emeria Shepherd trigger, returning Fall of the Thran from your graveyard to the battlefield. Fall of the Thran enters the battlefield with a lore counter, destroying all lands. Resolve the second Evolution Sage trigger, putting a lore counter on Fall of the Thran. Repeat from step 5.
