Watchers of the Word Wall
$begingroup$
The guards group near the campfire. None of them wants to leave the warm flames, yet someone has to go to make the patrol along the border.
Of course, in this situation, the youngest of them is the one that must do the duty. He picks up a torch and leaves the others behind.
Nearly a half league away he finds something strange: as his torch casts light on the wall, seemingly random words appear in front of his eyes:
Silk Origami Bug track King
Colored crown Cross Piety Barbary
Avengers Widow Construction Cannibalism
Feather Apex Red Lily Circus
He has no idea what this could mean, but he is determined to not go back to the elders without a theory: who could have left these marks and what are they saying?
What are the four categories hidden in these words and who is the guard?
(The rules of a standard connect wall apply: you have to find 4 categories, each containing 4 connected word. The 4 categories are also connected, and help you find the final answer.)

Partial answer that could be far from correct:
MANTIS:
bug track (Mantis is a bug tracking software)
avengers (Mantis is a member of the Avengers)
cannibalism (the praying mantis eats the head of the male after intercourse)
piety (piety is religious devotion, often exhibited through praying)
CRANE
origami (cranes are one of the most popular origami designs)
feather (cranes are birds with feathers)
colored crown (they can have colored crowns, such as the red-crowned crane)
construction (a crane is also a piece of machinery used for construction)
LION
king (as in The Lion King)
barbary (the barbary lion is an extinct species)
circus (many circuses feature lions)
apex (lions are apex predators)
SPIDER
widow (black widows are spiders)
red lily (the red spider lily is a species of lily)
silk (spiders build their webs with silk)
cross (cross spiders apparently exist).
This leads me to clans in Legend of the Five Rings. The wall in question would be the Kaiu Kabe, making the guard a member of the Crab Clan.

Everything is correct - to be able to identify the guards, just read a little about the "Wall" in the game, and you will find the 5th category, and get the well-deserved tick.
