There was. There were two Rifleman guarding the door, with another six patrolling the courtyard itself
Four more stood at the main gates of the castle, while eight or so patrolled the outer wall, looking in
Needless to the say, the courtyard and side entrance were covered from all angles

Poison caught the hard drive, and wasting no time, sprinted through the hallway, climbing up the stairs and came upon the fourth level, he looked at his surroundings...
-
The fourth floor.... Had no walls. Instead, it was consumed entirely by a small factory that was creating IMC robotic soldiers
-
"What the?" Poison said as he inspected the Soldiers as well as the guns they were carrying...
-
The robots were more advanced versions of previously seen soldiers such as Spectres and Stalkers. These seemed much more human in a sense

-
There was a staircase towards one of the corners, most likely leading upwards
-
Poison ran to it, and seeing that it in fact did lead upwards, climbed it and went up to to roof... Poison looked around, "so this is where I'm supposed to be, what next?"
-
Poison saw that there were four corners, and each one of the four corners was a single anti air turret Luckily, they were all shut down or destroyed, so when a Militia dropship landed it was no suprise that it did so safely. As Poison boarded the ship, he suddenly woke up, falling our of the pod onto the ground just outside the pod. "You alright?" Marker asked, helping Poison to his feet
-
"oh yeah. Rough landing, thats for sure."
-
"So. Tell me what you found our about that facility." Marker said, leading Poison to a seat in the room

Edited by medic: 7/5/2017 4:27:19 PM"I found the hard drive but never got a look at it, a meeting, a note with the name Cylus on it, and a robot factory with almost human-like robot soldiers..."
-
"What can you piece together from that? The name Cylus, and robots?"
-
"hmm... The robot soldiers are certainly more advanced, that's for sure, some new tech or something... But about Cylus, I remember you telling me about him earlier, but I can't really piece any of that together with the note...."
-
"Alright, I'll tell it to you. Essentially, you used the same Pod that Cylus did for his training and I never wiped the memory." "So, everyone in the program got more advanced and a smarter A.I. With more troops in fear of another Militia attack." "They were creating robots for defense because they thought it'd be a full invasion of the castle."
-
"oh."
-
"Yeah. Kind of lackluster. But, now I know I need to wipe the memory." [spoiler]Optional conversation! -Ask about Cylus -Compliment the castle -Ask about the robots, and if anything was real -Ask about the squad -Ask about whether or not you passed[/spoiler]
-
"soo... Did I pass?"
-
"Yeah, you passed." Marker said, stepping inside the pod and tapping something [spoiler]Optional conversation! -Ask about Cylus -Compliment the castle -Ask about the robots, and if anything was real -Ask about the squad[/spoiler]
-
"Good, I hoped I would! So was Cylus trained under you as well? I heard he got inducted as a pilot..."
-
"Yeah, he was. Did a lot for the Militia actually. Hell of a guy. I think he got to the Dojo about two weeks before you did. Something like that." [spoiler]Optional conversation! -Compliment the castle -Ask about the squad[/spoiler]
-
"ah, interesting... My squadmates in there? We're they, [i]are they[/i], real out of the simulation room? And why did they [i]think[/i] they were real, like you said?"
-
"Your squadmates? They were real once. Two of our best in the special operations field. Responsible for bringing us schematics for experimental tech that belonged to the IMC. They were killed in action, so I made programs of them. Their personalities and all. They think they're real because well... Technically. They were real." Marker said, falling into a solemn silence
-
Poison lowered his head, joining Marker in solemn silence...
-
"ANYWAYS! Moving on. You passed the test. Memory has been wiped. I've had one of our accountants transfer over 15,000 credits into your bank account. Get some ammo, get a new set of armour or something, maybe get some attachments do whatever. While I discuss your performance with others."
