In The Sandman: Worlds' End, whose funeral procession is seen?

At the end of The Sandman: Worlds' End, everyone in the tavern looks out the window to see a funeral procession in the sky. Obviously the Endless are involved, as Destiny is leading and Death and Delirium are at the end. But whose funeral is it? Is it Dream's? I know he dies, but he hasn't yet in the timeline. The only person I can think of whose died who would be significant to the story up to this point is Ishtar, but that doesn't make sense. I don't see Desire in the crowd, though, and I think I see Dream.

I'm very confused. Any help would be appreciated.

    First, congratulations on reading the best comics ever written! I love The Sandman series and specials which came later like the two Death books. There's even a new limited series coming out next year written by Gaimen.

    Anyway, I hate to spoil things but you DID ask so yep, Dream dies. I believe The Kindly Ones may be the next collection in the order you would read and it happens there. His "fate" is already sealed, though. Don't worry- the comic is still wonderful to read all the way to the end of the series. It may be bitter but it's still sweet.

    Morpheus was kind of a jerk and had it coming but hey, we still dream, right? Death may be a strong word...
