There were many people assisting the funeral. Among them, the rest of the Elders and Clotted Cream Cookie. Some even traveled from Parfaedia, the Vanilla Kingdom, you name it, only to go to this event.

Due to this, the hashtag #ThankYouCaviar was a trend on social media. 

Oyster Cookie was the most affected by this event, and she still couldn't believe her husband has died at the hands of the Twilight Kraken. She received the news from his assistant, and when she first heard, she was appalled.

So she let out a sigh, conforting herself, saying to herself everything will be okay. 

As Clotted Cream Cookie got up and to the microphone, not before closing the casket Captain Caviar Cookie was in, he let out a deep breath and said:

"To everyone watching this on live TV, and everyone who is present today, we are gathered here today to celebrate the life of Captain Caviar Cookie."

"But before we begin the ceremony, let us pray to the Divines."

They prayed to the Divine, hoping they would be okay. 

"Now, let's honor his life. He was more than just a role model. Always energetic and brave, always leaping up to challenge. I was even told he was one of the best." 

"Yet, I cannot believe he has passed away at the hands of the Twilight Kraken. But without him, the Republic's piracy battle would not be here today." 

"So, we are gathered to thank you for everything. Thank you, Caviar." 

"Now, Oyster Cookie has something to say." 

Everyone clapped. 

Oyster Cookie stepped up, with an note in hand  and said:

"This is a poem I made for this day. Its name? 


'My Dearest Cavi'


I have loved you ever since I first saw you. Your personality and everything.

Your black eyes, a sign of perseverance. The Silent, a sturdy boat.


You were one of the best captains I have ever heard of.

As you sail through the oceans of heaven, I wish the safest travels.


Due to the fact that you will successfully catch a kraken one day.

I wish in dismay, in this very day that your spirit blesses each one of us.


So that one of these very days, we sail again. 

So that one of these very days, we see a pirateless land everyday."


Everyone clapped. 

"Oyster Cookie, that was one beautiful poem. Now, this will be the final tribute before we begin his burial. This tribute will be done by Candy Diver Cookie. Just like I have done, they would like to say some words to him." 

Candy Diver Cookie stepped up.

"😱⚰️😢🤥😞😨😔🦈🏢😭☺️🌹❤️"

Translation:"I can't believe he's dead. At first, I thought it was a lie, but I came to know it's true, and I was devastated. My deepest condolences to the Salty Shark Crew and the rest of the republic. Rest in peace Caviar, I hope this rose lifts your adventures in heaven."

"Thank you, Candy Diver Cookie. Now, the burial will begin. Please follow me."

Everyone followed Clotted Cream Cookie to the site.

"*sigh* This is it. The final goodbye." his assistant said, about to place his coat on the casket in pure dismay. He decides to do it anyway. 

Oyster Cookie places a flower and the burying begins.

Everyone places a flower, one by one. The final flower was placed by Clotted Cream Cookie. 

Small tears started to form on his face, as he whispered:

"Thank you, Caviar."
