The way I see it, if you're on Coruscant, you could be unaware of your Mandalorian heritage. Perhaps you were dropped off by a family at the Jedi Temple but then later ran away and was forced to live in the slums. We could meet there, and I could take you in and educate you in that as well as combat and Smithing.
Hey, just so you know, Brentaal IV is mostly urbanized, so there wouldn't be large forests. More than likely, the patrol is somewhere in a bombed out neighborhood. It would be a maze of twisted metal and duracrete with buildings cut in half, on fire, or crumbling.
