One of the most interesting rabbit holes you can go down in the world of Catholicism, and apparently Orthodoxy, is the accounts from exorcists. They have a perspective on things that is surprising, enlightening, and surprisingly clear. One thing that comes up in the accounts from exorcists is how much demons hate and fear Mary.
This video is of a Bishop from the church of Cyprus, Metropolitan Neophytos of Morphou. I'll assume Morphou is a city in Cyprus. I do not know if he is or was an exorcist or if this is an account related to him, but how important and how special Mary in terms of God's plan is clear.
