I'm not close with Apus, but they'll be coming in with no information aside from what we give them. It looks like their partners have kept them in the dark, so they won't share the bias that the other teams seem to.
...and if you're bringing Excel in, she's your responsibility.
As for Queen's, keeping it for now is probably the best course of action. I have some information about King that might help us find his, to time destroying hers properly.
