Unfortunately, your bard just needs more levels to do the cycles easily. No need to mess around with faction; once you get a few more levels, you can just run around with travel song, and rarely will anything aggro. The hunters/foragers do not social with the other frogs, so you can usually solo pull them to a safe place to fear kite (east or west side of the lake is usually nice).
