If there's nothing faster than light, how did the dark get there first

It is true that the fastest matter in the universe is light which travels at a speed of 300 million meters per second. Dark is actually the absence of light. Hence, the dark does not travel. It is a vacuum space that appears to be dark because there is no light. In other words, the dark is dependent on light. If there is no light, there is no entity such as dark.
