I've read several Niefelheim guides, and one of them has the following for countering darkness:

Have a Gygja cast Twiceborn. Get her killed in your dominion. Voila, now she can see in the dark. Do this with a couple of Skratti as well. Your enemies will try to use darkness against you in their desparation, so this is a must-have for late-mid-game battles. A typical darkness casting foe is not well-suited to defend against white mages casting.

Anyway, just something I thought might help.
