You briefly consider wearing a cloak, then look back at the smoking ruin of the logging camp. The nearest cloak is probably somewhere in the village some ten miles to the south, and a quick scan of the area confirms no intelligent life is nearby. However, assuming a humanoid form can be done, though in this form you would be much slower.

About the fire vs darkness thing:
You were born of darkness, meaning that your basic form is limited to various forms of what might be seen as liquid shadow. However, being a somewhat corporeal being, weaker light does not simply make you vanish, or necessarily harm you. Stronger light, such as from the Sun or a fire will prevent your movement in brightly lit areas, causing great pain and suffering if you choose to do so. Having this fire affinity means that you initially have a very limited control of fire, more limited than your powers of darkness. However, these can be seen as skills and can be trained with experience. You now know, for example, how much energy is necessary to raise a creature from the dead without causing other terrible things to happen as a side effect. (Such as blowing up the victim)
Your admittedly successful screwup with the dog was caused by an output of raw power with no finesse whatsoever. This caused an overload of magical energy to incinerate the animal over a short period of time, violently expanding outwards when there was no more fuel left. If such a thing were to happen too close to you, it would cause... setbacks. To put it lightly.
tl;dr:
You aren't totally limited by light, really bright light is bad, you have better control over darkness and stealth than fire, and shit exploding was caused by you being a noob at life. Causing more things to explode will probably end badly for you.
