Nora becomes prepared to fullfil Pleny's request

Is this good so far?

Overcoming her personal emotions, Nora becomes prepared to fullfil Pleny's request. Nora recognized that Pleny would be dead if his finger was not cut off, so" in neccessity and tenderness, she swiftly did what must be done."

Yes, so far, so good! I realize this is a rough draft, but I went ahead and make a few corrections for you. Double-check your quotations to make sure they are accurate; the second one, especially.

Greetings!
and Thank you

wait but what happens when this whole thing isn't the quote though?
"As Nora was kicked, a child a child of the plains had awakened within her."
can i change it to As "Nora was kicked, a child a child of the plains had awakened within her."

o ya and do you have to put the page number next to the quote?

Greetings!

I'm not sure I really understand your question about the quotation. While you don't have to use the entire sentence when quoting, you do have to quote the part you are using exactly. Are you sure there isn't any punctuation between "a child a child"? Surely, "a child" isn't in there twice with no comma or dash in between?

You should put the page number after the quotation, yes. If you are using MLA, just put the number in parentheses like this (248). I am assuming you identified the author and book title at the beginning of your essay. If the whole essay is devoted to that one book, you only have to give the title and author once.

I hope this answers your questions!
