"The feeding area is this way." said Vermillion

Vermillion leads Viviana and Moon to the feeding area where there's separate floors dedicated in separating the groups of animals that come so that they can all eat in peace without interference from the other animals. Moon can currently see the chicks and chickens on one floor, but ducks and ducklets on another floor above them. They all soon started to feed as dispensers dispense food for the animals, there's plenty of food for them to go around.

She smiled and watched.

There were a lot of animal noises going on through the feeding area as then soon someone brought one of two alpacas in for feeding.

"Ah, that over there is an alpaca, one of two that we have here in Alexcia. They are amazing guard animals...but their usefulness as guards is kinda non-existent here in Alexcia... Still it's always nice to have one around as they make for neat animals." said Vermillion

She smiled and nodded. She was getting as excited as Mai when Mai first met her.

"Care to pet it? It's fur is a bit stiff because of its shortness, but it's still soft." said Vermillion

"Really?" She asked all excited.

"Sure, go right ahead." said Vermillion with a smile

The alpaca starts to eat its food while the caretaker, a male, brushes it with long straightening and cleaning comb to get all the knots and dirt off of it.

She goes to pet the alpaca.

The alpaca aimlessly ignores Moon's petting as it continues to eat its food. The male caretaker eventually spots Moon petting the alpaca, but continues on with his work, but...

"Oh? You must be Moon, right?" asked the male caretaker

"Yes, she is Richter." said Viviana coming up to the group

"Ah, hello, Lady Viviana. We have been eagerly awaiting for you." said Richter

"I just got here, and I'll be ready to work soon. Just giving Moon the tour around here." said Viviana

"Along with me, since I've brought her here." said Vermillion

"Oh? Lord Vermillion is here as well? It's quite an honor." said Richter with a smile

"Oh...it's nothing special... I do come here every now and then to see the animals, since I like them too." said Vermillion

"They all are very nice. This has been a very rewarding career...though I did wanted to be a chef, but this job is great in it's own right." said Richter

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that your actual dream didn't came true." said Vermillion

"Don't be. Like I said, this job alone is well beyond good enough for me." said Richter

"Looks like he's being good to you, yes?" asked Viviana

"Yeah, he's very calm and obedient. I do let him practice his spitting, which he does enjoy a lot of the time." said Richter

"Makes sense, he was trained to be a guard alpaca...but there's really not much to guard where the area around here is nice and peaceful..." said Viviana

"True." said Richter

She nodded and smiled. "It's very nice to meet you Richter." She said.

"Indeed. Just taking care of the nice animals here. As soon as he's done eating, I was thinking about let him do some spitting practice. I'm sure he'll love it." said Richter

"That'll be nice... Hey, Moon, I think we should see it in action, yes? Alpacas are amazing sharpshooters with their spit, hitting even small objects a few yards away." said Vermillion

"...It's not the most prettiest of things to see, but it is how Alpacas sometimes fight off predators and intruders..." said Viviana

She smiled. "I'd love to." She said while her tail waved.

"Alright, give him about 10 minutes for him to feed, and he'll be ready to go." said Richter

"Okay, thanks." said Vermillion as he then turns her attention to Moon "So, I suppose we can give you the tour of the animal husbandry while we wait for Richter to finish up."

She nodded with a smile.

"Alright then, follow me." said Vermillion

Vermillion showed Moon all over the animal husbandry, milking stations, a medical center, wide storage, the upper stable areas, and the washing and grooming areas. He showed Moon everything, which she'll find that it's a very big facility. After giving Moon the tour around the animal husbandry, Vermillion escorts Moon to see Richter as he takes the male alpaca outside again, now that he's clean and well-groomed. They didn't need to go far away from the building to set up a bit of a practice area for the male alpaca to spit to his heart's content. Richter sets up eight small soft metal bottles on top of eight poles before heading to the alpaca to gently direct him to get ready to spit at the bottle targets.

"This should be fun to watch him in action, spitting down eight bottle targets roughly seven yards away." said Vermillion

She watched happily.

It didn't take long for the alpaca to start spitting at the bottle targets, hitting all eight of them with a few minutes because he missed quite a couple of times adjusting his aim. Still the alpaca was very happy as he rubs his body Richter, tell him that. Richter responded by gently petting him.

"That was really neat, wasn't it Moon? You can't really see the spit the alpaca fires because to goes so fast, but at least he was able to knock down all the targets." said Vermillion

She smiled and nodded. "Very interesting." She said.

"Anyway, that's not all there's stuff people can do with the animals here. We have a special track and field which Viviana uses to train Caroline and Madeline...though it's mostly to play with them, as well as to give them some exercise... Let's go see Viviana, to see if she's willing to take them to the racetrack today." said Vermillion

She giggled. "Okay!" She said with a smile.
