TLDR: Does a creature need to be on the battlefield at the beginning of the next endstep for Lifeline's last ability to resolve?
Lifeline Errata:
Whenever a creature dies, if another creature is on the battlefield, return the first card to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.
Once the on death trigger from Lifeline has resolved it no longer cares about you having another creature on the battlefield. It sets up a delayed trigger for the end of turn that has no conditions (other than the dead creature still being in the GY)

Scenario:
My board state is currently: lifeline, Diamond Valley, Relentless rats, Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet.
An opponent casts Final Judgment, in response I tap Diamond Valley to sacrifice Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet.
Final Judgment resolves, exiling Relentless Rats.
Now that I no longer control any creatures would Lifeline still return Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step?
