Storyline of character's rise to Kingship

[ultimateX021]

Hello everybody.

I've been listening to this song from Freedom call. I got this cool idea about a story of a man who loses everything in the beginning then wanders off along the land in search of a new home. Along the way, they have to defend themselves against thieves, monsters, bandits, and other obstacles in their way. They continuously plead to the "guardians" as they strive to survive this major expedition. Soon, they come unto land helping people along the way only to be a part of a major battle between two enemy lines. With his help, one side wins. At the end of it, with some development still underway in the middle of this story, they are appointed as the new king.

I ask what anime you can think of that not only has plenty of medieval knighthood in them, which I've already gotten answers for, but a character's transition from losing everything to gaining more at the end -- which ideally I'd say, becomes a King.

Any suggestions?
