After playing Hidden Blade on an enemy unit with Deathknell, who gets priority first after the Deathknell trigger finalizes?

Answer
Ruling: The player controlling the Deathknell effect gains priority, as they control the newest item on the chain after the trigger is finalized during cleanup.
Sequence:
- Player A plays Hidden Blade and starts a chain
- Chain finalizes and executes, both players pass
- Chain resolves and Hidden Blade effect executes
- Cleanup takes place upon removal of last item on the chain
- Deathknell triggers on cleanup and is added to the chain
- Deathknell is finalized within cleanup
- Chain goes to step 1 and finalizes
- Player controlling the Deathknell effect (newest in chain) gains priority
Nuances:
- Finalizing does not modify priority in general, but when a new effect is added to the chain during cleanup, the controller of that newest effect gains priority
