Addis' design is (loosely) inspired by Mel Medarda. She's a force to be reckoned with.
Her instance in particular, Hexbear, was initially defederated from everyone (that is, disconnected from the wider Lemmy/fediverse network), but recently decided to change their policy and federated (or, joined the network), hence her calling out "being federated" like this

So is she asking that Konsi should be a junior priestess, or that Konsi should get a junior priestess to help her?
She's asking what kind of present would help "a junior priestess" with their work, because Konsi is a junior priestess.
A better sentence would be "Do you have any suggestions for presents suitable for a junior priestess?" - but speech bubble real estate is expensive.

I understand, “suggestions for a junior priestess” could mean asking for advice on a gift, as you said, or it could mean “what junior priestess is best”.
