use the quest item to light the "blue eggs" around the pillars on fire. then follow the welps inside the cave to the west.
It appears that my quest tracker was showing wrong. The second time I finished the quest, the quest tracker said Baleflame was inside the Obsidian Lair. So it appears he can be found at 2 places, but only his location inside the Obsidian Lair works.

Description
In the southwestern portion of the Obsidian Forest, you will find some of the black egg clutches. Many of the eggs can be hatched at any time with a bit of prodding from the right flame, and as the whelplings hatch, they will cry out and flock for their mother. Do not worry, if this purging is to be taken to the whelps, that is not a task that I will force on you. I simply want you to let them out and follow them home as they seek their mother. It is she who we must confront.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shining Through the Dark
The great petrified tree that lies before us to the south was once a beacon of great life. Our beacon. We lost this forest to the black flight, and it has since been corrupted and petrified. Nearly unredeemable. But all is not without hope. I've brought a powerful tool to begin the healing process.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Fitting End
The Obsidian wyrmkin litter the landscape to our south. They're in no position to push back against us, but one can never tell what new threats the ebb of battle may bring. I want you to take the fight to the wyrmkin.
