Horde of Notions is the engine: it casts Elementals from the graveyard, so Jegantha returns the moment Altar of Dementia sacrifices it, and the free equip on Lightning Greaves means Jegantha untaps ready to produce the five-color mana on the next pass. Every loop iteration mills five, triggers a sacrifice outlet, and fires Jegantha's ETB and LTB — Risen Reef or Terror of the Peaks turns each iteration into a draw or a damage ping respectively.

Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Ashnod's Altar replaces Altar of Dementia if the target is life total rather than library — it produces two colorless per loop, which doesn't advance the mana math but feeds artifact-payoff lines. The combo doesn't kill without a payoff already on board; Thassa's Oracle after infinite self-mill or Impact Tremors for the damage route are the cleanest closers the 5-color identity affords.
