Answer / adriarain

Govardhan, If I was to give you a candle and this candle was
the hottest thing in the universe....

Then I asked you.. How cold is it ?

Would you say it is 0% cold or even zero cold ?

Answer / adrianrain

The speed of 'darkness' can be calculated by looking at the
speed of which light leaves the area you presume is dark.

Obviously this is also at the speed of light.

Due to the absence of light there is no calculation that can
be done. The speed of the dark as the dark does not flow in
any direction it is simply the absence of light.
