Age of Wyrms question (spoiler)

We've just finished the 9th module, so please don't spoil the last
three in answering this post.

We had a lot of problems fighting swords of kyuss because of a
negative energy attack they have (and 20 of them, doing this 3x each,
for an average of 50 points each, is nasty even for 17th level
characters). I need to find out, broadly speaking, how to defend
against what seem to be negative energy fireballs.

Resist Energy is no use, as far as I know. Anyone have any ideas?

Death Ward spell should help
