Can someone explain how the CK is linked to these two? Obviously CK is referred to numerous times as Mordred's "red father"...but how can that be? And how is Mia linked to the CK?

Say sorry, I shouldve clarified...indeed I have.
I shouldve clarified, say sorry...yes, I've finished.
I was a bit confused myself, but here goes:
Spoiler:
I think thats how it goes, could be more to it though, I'v only read the last book once, I may have missed something.
In nutshell: Mordred had two mothers and two fathers: Mia/Susannah - CrimsonKing/Roland
Only three of them were genetically related to him. Mia was just the transfer body which fed and delivered the baby. Interesting and a bit sad that only Mia loved and cared about him him.
In the Gunslinger when Roland was with the oracle, the oracle collected Roland's seed. This time the oracle was female. Later Susannah was with the very same demon this time it was male and collected Sussanah's egg.
Somehow Roland's and the Crimson King's seeds got united, and this very special seed which was Roland's and the CK's at the same time inseminated Susannah's egg and finally Mordred was created in order to finish and destroy Roland.
Roland would have understood.
But see, that si where I get confused - how is the seed both Roland's and the CK's? Specificlally, how is it the CK's?
How can you pull people from other worlds through magic doors?
We can come up with hows but we will not get all the answers but okay, I'll tell you how I imagine it.
As I have said I think they united the seeds. One half of the seed was the CK's and the other half was Roland's...
Something like this:
Of course it's not this simple but this is the base of the system IMHO.
Roland would have understood.
