The Whole

__NOTOC__
"Dull, yet horrifying; encumbering, yet vast — The Whole was a terrible experience that I would not wish on anyone, despite my time there being only brief. An ocean of matter... avoid this place at all costs."- Unknown Radio Communication
The Whole is a perilous extraspatial location in the Backrooms. Any time a noclip is performed, there is a slim chance that one may fall past The Void and end up in The Whole.
==Description==
The Whole, also referred to as "The Full", is considered to be the antithesis of The Void. It is blindingly bright, with an ever-present source of light emanating from all directions as a result of an abundance of dense, boiling matter compounding together. As its name implies, The Whole is full and overflowing with matter, in stark contrast to the dismal nothingness that comprises The Void. For all its light, it is lethal and overwhelming; as such, it has been likened to a "vast and illogical ocean."
The distribution of matter in The Whole is so dense that it is almost impossible to traverse for extended periods of time. The energy released by its constant clashing of matter, releasing immense amounts of energy as it churns, makes for a weltering, turbulent environment. Many areas of its space reach astronomical temperatures, leaving it inhabitable for a matter of seconds at most; objects are often scorched upon entry, their properties fluctuating with the passage of time. Both captivating and deadly, this degree of density makes The Whole an incredibly hazardous environment.
Because localized time is compressed and distorted within The Whole, events that occur within it can experience extreme shifts in perceived duration, seemingly lasting much longer or shorter than expected. This temporal warping can make navigation incredibly difficult, as one may attempt to move in a single direction for multiple minutes, only to find that less than a second has passed in reality. Unconfirmed reports tell of travelers being aged beyond recognition upon their return, while their own descriptions detail reemerging "in the blink of an eye". Time is essentially a fluid concept in The Whole, as are most laws of reality, with one's experience in its depths often being determined by their state of mind.
Just as The Broken holds a symbiotic relationship with the Backrooms, The Whole appears to hold many connections with its "counterpart", The Void. Rumors exist of the two realms being heavily intertwined, meaning that entering a certain area of The Void could lead one to a specific location in The Whole, and vice versa. This potentially allows one to gain access to the level with relative ease, though the risks of doing so would largely outweigh any potential benefits. It is theorized that it serves as a crucial connection point between The Void and the rest of the Backrooms. Fortunately, due to the abundant presence of matter in the level, it is possible to noclip as a means of escape at almost any point within it, unlike The Void, in which noclipping cannot be performed. From this, it is theorized that if proper safety measures are discovered, The Whole may be able to function as a means of direct transportation to any location in the Backrooms.
==Colonies and Outposts==
Due to the nature of this level, forming colonies or outposts has been deemed infeasible.
==Entrances and Exits==
===Entrances===
It is thought that The Whole can only be entered by performing a noclip severely incorrectly, unintentionally self-accelerating past The Void entirely.
===Exits===
As previously mentioned, one may noclip out of The Whole at nearly any point due to its abundance of matter; however, due to the nature of the level, the exit points of performed clips are virtually impossible to calculate.
