Getting arrested at Candlekeep

So, I just returned to Candlekeep. I wanted to explore the place before confronting the leaders, but once I get to the sixth floor the guard arrests me for killing them anyways. Is that just how it's supposed to be?

Now I'm kind of picturing that scene in the matrix where the security guy asks Neo to please put any metal objects in the box at the checkpoint. Priceless scene!
Even though it seems like you keep your eqipment, the dialogue implies that they took it. Thethoril gives it back to you ("I have your possesions with me, you must take them and go with haste").
#1 do NOT speak with koveras, he is actually the holmes that will script this in with the gate warden on the top floor
#2 do NOT kill the baddies on the third level because that warps in the watcher on level 4
so if you want to explore all of candle keep, here is how i do it:
first level: give 'er ham, nothing here will trigger the "arrested" scene
second level: as soon as you get here, run upstairs and talk with no body ( you will be coming back )
third level: same thing, skip this level and go to level 4
fourth level: now you will not be molested by the "arrested" scene ( although i still advise not talking to the watchers though ) so explore at your leisure
* Do note that if you are seen stealing goodies from chests and the like you can get caught, so stealth is still a good option there
fifth level: again do whatever you wish here and all should be good
sixth level: the gate warden will still come speak to you just to say he doesn't have time to speak to you ( HAW, thanks for the irony pal ) anyway, again explore at your leisure, but perhaps though when thethoril comes to speak to you, make sure he is as far away from his starting position as possible because if you plan to "procure" the goodies from the chest/cabinet in his room, you will summon the guards so watch out beware
after levels 1,4,5,6 are all said and done, go back down to level 2
second level: now you can talk to all the holmes who will come flying in on your position, after their conversations, do as you will
third level: again do whatever you need to do here, perhaps murder perhaps not, either way you are getting framed for it so you know what to do
after you finish floor 3, you will be arrested on floor 4 but it will be all good, since you will have finished all of candlekeep library and its time to continue on to the next section
