Damcyan is a principality in the game Final Fantasy IV and in Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. It is a desert principality located in the northern parts of the world, and its borders include the town of Kaipo. The principality is ruled by prince Edward Chris von Muir. It is home to the Crystal of Fire. In the English localization of the DS version, Damcyan is pronounced [ˈdæm.si.ən].

When Cecil Harvey, Rydia, and Tellah arrive at Damcyan, they are just in time to see Baron's Red Wings bomb the castle. Most of the citizens and soldiers are killed, and Tellah finds his daughter Anna wounded as well. He blames the incident on Edward (not knowing who he is at the time, he attacks Edward and delivers his famous line, "You Spoony Bard!"). Anna, only moments from death, breaks up the fight and announces that she is in love with Edward, and that he protected her from Golbez. Tellah decides to avenge Anna, and sets off to defeat Golbez.
Edward bursts into tears at this time, and Cecil and Rydia snap him out of it. They ask for his help in seeking the Sand Pearl, which can cure Cecil's beloved Rosa Joanna Farrell. Edward agrees, and the three of them take the Hovercraft to the Antlion's Den.
Note: These monsters appear both around Damcyan and near the Antlion's Den.
