if the enemy gets too close to stab then the best thing you can do is a weak slap with the side of the lance, or perhaps a kick would be better Honestly, spears in general have that as a disadvantage, not just this weapon. Polearms are often very weak beyond the blade. To use spears as an example, with a sword the only part that isn't the blade is the handle. With a spear, only the end has a blade, the rest is just a normal pole. Lances are no different, if anything barely better. Then again, they were made to thrust and pierce, not to be swinged like swords or axes.

Daffodil could do what you say, a weak "slap" or slash, or a quick kick. She could also try to look cool and just shoot point-blank at the ground, risks be damned.
