Luminous Broodmoth + Viscera Seer

Overview
If you activate Viscera Seer’s “Sacrifice a creature” ability while you control Luminous Broodmoth, the creature you sacrifice is moved to the graveyard as part of the cost , that event causes Luminous Broodmoth’s triggered ability to trigger, and that triggered ability will be put on the stack on top of the Viscera Seer activated ability and therefore will resolve first, returning the sacrificed creature to the battlefield with a flying counter and .
Step 1
You activate Viscera Seer’s ability and, as part of paying its activation cost, you sacrifice a creature, moving it from the battlefield to your graveyard .
Step 2
The event of that creature going to the graveyard from the battlefield causes Luminous Broodmoth’s triggered ability (“Whenever a creature you control without flying dies…”) to trigger (assuming the sacrificed creature didn’t already have flying).
Step 3
The activated ability you activated (Viscera Seer: Scry 1) is put on the stack when the activation completes; the Broodmoth trigger is waiting to be put on the stack.
Step 4
Before any player receives priority the game checks state-based actions and then puts waiting triggered abilities onto the stack . The Broodmoth trigger is placed on the stack on top of the Seer ability.
Step 5
The Broodmoth triggered ability resolves first, returning the sacrificed creature to the battlefield under its owner’s control with a flying counter .
Step 6
After that, the Viscera Seer activated ability resolves (it no longer needs the sacrificed creature to exist; the sacrifice was a cost already paid), and you perform the scry.
Resolution
When you sacrifice a creature to Viscera Seer, the sacrifice (moving the creature from the battlefield to the graveyard) happens as part of paying the Seer’s activation cost . That death creates a Luminous Broodmoth trigger (if the creature you controlled had no flying). The Seer’s activated ability is placed on the stack, then state-based actions are checked and waiting triggered abilities (including Broodmoth’s) are put on the stack . The Broodmoth trigger will therefore be above the Seer ability on the stack and will resolve first, returning the sacrificed creature to the battlefield under its owner’s control with a flying counter .
