That's not very surprising, as info on these place is also extremely scarce in the old sources. If you find anything substantial, assume it was invented in the recent past.

I think I remember something about Svartalflheim being a sort of 'Valhalla' for evil witches and hags. And Alfheim was the name of Frey's mansion, the Alfheim you're thinking of got its name from this house - just as 'Rome' was often used to mean 'the Roman Empire'.

Might be there's enough content there for a new nation/mod?
I'd expect Alfheim to be very very close to base Vanheim, and Svartalflheim to be very very close to Helheim.

Anyone familiar with the subject care to elaborate?
Try asking KO!
